nobody is absolutely wrong here. What I believe is that GRE is more like acted as stepping stone, which must be satisfied as entry by the university at a certain level. Once you pass their required level, GRE does not benefit anyone any more unless your qualification is very close to your last-vacancy competitor.
Then you are evaluated by your qualification, which consists of hardware and software. Hardware such as GPA, Honor, certificates and so on. Software such as research experience, paper publish, intern experience, letter of recommend so on.
Comment me if you have other interesting opinions.
