Hi Harika, 290 is an average GRE score, you may or may not get into a top ranked university and this will depend on your overall profile. Also your IELTS is low. 6.5 band is required generally. You must have completed your Bachelors with good grades too. Your SOP and LORs will also be counted. If the application package is strong then you have a chance.

Some of the Sentence Completion questions may need more than just one word to finish the sentence. The instructions for these questions will specify if you need a single word or several words to complete sentence.
Improving accuracy involves practising active listening, paying attention to context, and identifying synonyms or paraphrased ideas. Regular practice with IELTS listening materials can help you become more familiar with different accents and sentence structures.
Sentence Completion questions typically require you to fill in a noun, verb, adjective or sometimes a number. The word will directly relate to the context of the sentence so it's essential to listen for specific details in the audio.
Tune into various language formats like podcasts, news reports and practice tests to get prepared for IELTS listening. Pay attention to finding important details like synonyms and paraphrasing in sentences to fill in blanks correctly.
