Would it not make more sense to have the upper levels as 49 and 99 so scores are rounded down? I got 1300 which is a pretty big jump from 1251! This may just be sour GRE grapes from me LOL

You might as well make a GPA poll too

fenderpete- AMEN

haha

Wonder if the Q and V should be separated; I'm sure there are lots of programmes that only care about one or t'other.

edit: brain fart... ignore

lol, I thought max GRE score was 1500 and was surprised to see someone voting in the 1501+ category. Baaaa, I need sleep.

[Astaroth]

what peculiar distribution... probably the result of people from so many different disciplines voting

I'm sure there's some self-selection going on, too.

no need really since it is anonymous, right?

[Tinyboss]

Well, people who are especially excited about their score might be more motivated to participate.

ETA: though it does seem that most of the people who post on this board have pretty strong apps...

I do have to say I was feeling better about my score (in the 1401-1450) cat before this poll, lol.

Me too... the the work experience poll didn't help either.

ha, if it makes you feel better, generally the GRE isn't as important as long as your scores are decent (and 1401-1450 is good!).. afterwards it's about the rest of your app!
