What percentile is 167verbal and 163quant?

[1|]010ls10o]

I took the GRE today and received unofficial scores. 167 for verbal and 163 for quant. I am filling these into my apps but do not have a percentile that corresponds to it.

I called ETS for 1 hour, two different departments, and they 'cannot' say what those scores correspond to. However, they said it's always based on recent test scores (one representative said it was based on the last 3 years, another said it was based on 'recent' tests.) I took the GRE 3 weeks ago and got worse scores/percentiles (eg my writing score was 4.0 = 59th percentile, which is below clinical psych students' average of 4.8-5.0 / 90th percentile). Those percentiles match the percentiles from the 'score interpretation' pdf on ETS which displays scale/% for the past 3 years. So it is obvious that percentiles are out, but ETS won't offer that information.  

If you took the GRE recently (eg last month?), could you please tell me what percentile my scores are? I am hoping some of you also received 167v and 163q within the last month or so, and can help me determine what percentile that is, so I can fill in my apps which are due soon (Dec 1, as many of you know). My official scores will obviously not arrive in time, so I'm hoping just the unofficials would suffice. Please help me out! I would deeply appreciate it.

Your percentiles will be what is on the PDF on the ETS website. I don't believe they change by month. According to their table, 167V is 98th percentile and 163Q is 83rd percentile. Your scores look great. Good job!

Thanks, I thought my percentile wouldnt change either, but my psych GRE percentile decreased within these past 4 months. I called ETS about it and they just said 'it happens all the time'

I am thinking about using the GRE website PDF but wanted to be certain instead of hypothesizing based on data from last 3 years, especially given the percentile decrease that i experienced.
