Not super inclined to starting off this topic as my score isn't super up there... but here we go anyways!
This was the first time I wrote the Math GRE and i got 780 (78%)...
not crazy about this, kinda was hoping for higher. Any thoughts about me retaking the exam in October? I'm planning on applying to place like Cornell and Brown for applied math from UBC (Canadian student).

A little reluctant to join just to post a "good" score, but I know the information of others was helpful to me in the past, so I'm recording this for posterity:
910, 98%. Answered about 63 questions.

For applied, that should be decent - I got into an Ivy with 770 (77%) for pure. Of course, the rest of your application must be good too, and it doesn't hurt to try to improve your score if you're willing to shell out the extra cash.

900, 97%
I left 2 questions blank and chose 1 wrong answer (it's a very easy number theory question, I felt so regret for my answer to that after the exam!)
I hope my score is well enough for applied maths programmes.
