Sealove00 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I'm curious, when ETS sends my GRE score report to my university, what will my university see on that report? Are they able to see the questions I missed, and my written issue and argument essays as well? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iowaguy Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 They will just see your scores and percentiles for V, Q, and AW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sealove00 Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 Oh, they won't even receive my essays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midnight Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Nope, they won't receive your essays (and I can't imagine them taking time to read them even if they did). They only see your scores and corresponding percentiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridofme Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 My understanding was that they do see your essays, but now I can't find any official source either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhMySocks Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Here is an example of a score report that the institution might receive: http://www.ets.org/s/gre/pdf/institution_score_report.pdf All it has is the raw scores. No other information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andean Pat Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 That's why, at least in my field and in the departments I have applied to, they do not pay much attention to scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisaflorence Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 According to my understanding ,percentile ranks shown on score reports are based on the performance of the current reference group for each test regardless of when the scores were earned.

iowaguy Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 That's why, at least in my field and in the departments I have applied to, they do not pay much attention to scores. In some fields the top schools have a GRE cutoff, where they toss the applications in the trash that don't meet a minimum score... Some programs/schools also use GRE scores as a factor to determine who gets fellowships. YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
