Hi, I just took the gre and got 164 quant (90th percentile), which is a relativey low score compared to most stat phd applicants.

Do you think this will affect my chances of getting into a top stat phd program? Or whether any place wil automatically cut me off for this? My math/stat background easily meets the requirements for any program, and my gpa for math/stat courses are above 3.9.

Thanks!

I have no firsthand knowledge of this, but everyone seems to say that you just have to not do badly. I would imagine that that score is fine.

That score is fine. Remember, under the old system an 800 was 88-92nd percentile!

800 was 94th percentile when the new system was implemented.
