I posted this also on New GRE scores are up.
I've been following this forum for a while but decided to post only because my experience with the estimates seems to be much different than most folks. Namely, my verbal was much lower and outside of the range of 700-800 that I received. Similarly, my quant was at the higher end whereas it seems that most people are getting scores that were at the low end of ranges. See below:
V: 700-800 estimate - 162 (90%) actual = 640
Q: 650-750 estimate - 156 (74%) actual = 720
AW: 5.0
I'm satisfied with my scores even though I wanted to do better (get at least 1400 on the old scale). I've been doing research at a university for more than 5 years, have publications, and strong letters of reference so I hope to be a good candidate. I will say that folks on this site are quite impressive. Good luck to you all!
