申请CS Master,verbal成绩有那么重要么?

近日lz偶然在usfca的cs系网站上(usfca.edu)看到M.S. in Computer Science申请条件,震惊地发现,该校CS系对GRE的verbal部分根本是不要求的,仅对quantitative的成绩和AW有要求,原文如下:

Q:What is the average GRE score?

A:The average quantitative GRE score of our Fall 2014 cohort is 164. Applications with a quantitative score below 155 are not competitive. The minimum analytical writing score is 3.5 for non-native English speakers. The verbal GRE score is not considered in the admission process.

这就让我就突发感慨,准备GRE的过程中大部分的时间都花在verbal上面,结果人家还不看,只看Q的成绩。即使是其他学校的CS系,把verbal成绩太当回事我感觉也是荒谬的,这毕竟是CS专业又不是文学专业、新闻学专业等对语言要求特别高的专业。同志们为什么还要花费大量的心血在verbal上面呢?verbal差不多(150-155左右)不就行了么?

lz浅陋,请拍砖
