  1. Lol this means accepted without funding. Most of these "no prize" are for Master applicants.
  2. Thank you for sharing these useful pieces of information. I am curious how the "faculty of interest" or "faculty consulted" listed in an application influences the reviewing process. Will an empty list of "faculty consulted" negatively influence the application, and does "faculty of interest" reduce the possibility that this application can be carefully reviewed by other faculty members?
  3. Thank you @leafpile and @marmle! Indeed I was previously in a school (as an undergrad, but I'm now in a grad program where no one takes GRE sub) where most students got 90%+, so I didn't feel it's good when I saw my score. And it's possibly true that the students who didn't expect to get 90%+ may have simply chosen not to take the test. I did hear that Stanford had an average of 82%, but am not sure whether it's still the case now. I guess the best option for me is to report it whenever asked, but I'm still a bit hesitant to submit it elsewhere. Many thanks again!
  4. Thank you! This makes me a bit more relieved. Anyway I should at least report it to the program asking this question...
  5. Hi everyone, I am applying to several stat/biostat PhD programs, and just got my GRE math sub score, which is mediocre (860, 88%). Given (I have heard) that admission committees usually expect higher math scores from international applicants, especially those previously majoring in math (and I am), I guess reporting it will most probably weaken my application. However, there is a program, which does not require or recommend GRE sub, that asks "have you taken a GRE math subject test?" in the application forms, and I suppose there is no reason for me to answer "no" even though I will not send my official score there. I am struggling because I have no idea how this will negatively influence my application, and whether I should still apply there. I feel a bit awkward if I simply change a program, given that my referees have already submitted their LoRs. Any suggestion or comment will be appreciated!
