could you tell me what major you are applying for? we may happen to apply for the same majorppham27 wrote:I got 800 (81%). I answered 53. I missed some easy questions and should have gotten a few more points, but it's whatever now. Anyway, the score should be more than good enough since I'm domestic and not going for pure math.
I'm mainly looking at applied math and stats programs.sufeliyan wrote:could you tell me what major you are applying for? we may happen to apply for the same majorppham27 wrote:I got 800 (81%).

I scored the same. I don't think this is a bad score at all for top 20 programs. I recall a few schools towards the bottom of the top 20 put up average scores for admitted students, and 830 was above average, and is probably considerably above average for a domestic student who hasn't done a masters. The only way I could see it being a negative is if you're international and applying to MIT/Harvard/a few others.ynxysunny wrote:I got 830 (85% ). Will that affect my chances if I'm aiming at top 20?

I am an international student though But I'm not targeting at schools that top. I got my undergraduate education in the States from a top liberal arts college not famous for math. I wonder if they would put me in the international student pool or the domestic student pool. Sigh!goatman2743 wrote:I scored the same. I don't think this is a bad score at all for top 20 programs.

Quit crying, you little babies. Anything above 80% is perfect.ynxysunny wrote:I got 830 (85% ). Will that affect my chances if I'm aiming at top 20? I'm applying to pure math programs.
Yes! I'm STILL doing my happy dance over my 88%. I am so PROUD of myself, and no amount of crying emoticons over scores similar to mine is going to take that away from me.safetybelts wrote:sufeliyan wrote:I also scored 850, 88%.

I assume this is the verbal score? In this case, if you are an international it is not that bat. I am in a top tier school, and we have lots of internationals with 30% in verbalGyamco wrote:870, 91%
But my GRE is too low (146) for me to apply for a good school
