To the poster below, I graduated with a degree in Environmental Engineering from a pretty well known program in America. I had a 3.90 GPA, GRE verbal 168, quantitative 163, AW 4.5. I have worked in consulting on some pretty innovative projects the past 3 years. I had 3 strong letters of recommendation, and I highlighted my experience as a technical writer in my SOP. Good luck!
