October 2013 scores

[goatman2743]

It says scores are posted online tomorrow - does anyone know around what time they'll be up?

[lowdt]

Usually midnight EST.

[goatman2743]

Ok, at least I can be put out of my misery quickly. Best of luck to everyone!

[sufeliyan]

actually already available now on the phone

[hamsandwich69]

Mine aren't up online...anyone else had luck?

[redcar777]

My scores are on the website now. For me, the results are 95% and 97% on this years tests, up from 80% on my test a year ago.

Well, I'm done with the GRE now. Thanks for all your help, forum people.

[dipsan2013]

Scores are out now. Mine a dismal 700 (61%)

[caxton]

I scored an awful 540.

Sadly in my case I can't re-write the test. Testing has been suspended in my country (Nigeria) for an indefinite period. Welp!

850, 88%

YES! Up from last year's 750, 71%. Doing a happy dance that will likely last all day

[freddie777]

Mine is 760. I was expecting 800-820 as I answered 60 and I knew I made around 6 mistakes.
I think that the question about second derivative of parametrized function did not have correct answer.
I may be wrong but I checked it again and again; and it sadly took a lot of my time

[ppham27]

I got 800 (81%). I answered 53. I missed some easy questions and should have gotten a few more points, but it's whatever now. Anyway, the score should be more than good enough since I'm domestic and not going for pure math.

[sufeliyan]

I also scored 850, 88%. As a finance major, I think that's okay, though not that good.

could you tell me what major you are applying for? we may happen to apply for the same major

I'm mainly looking at applied math and stats programs.

[Seyrena]

44% ! I did not study a day (was doing a research internship at Berkeley until the end of September, then had to defend my master thesis etc)! A lot of stuff on the test I completely forgot about! I think I am going to change the schools I am applying to, maybe the fact that I am only interested in applied math will help (fingers crossed!)

[ynxysunny]

I got 830 (85% ). Will that affect my chances if I'm aiming at top 20? I'm applying to pure math programs.

I scored the same. I don't think this is a bad score at all for top 20 programs. I recall a few schools towards the bottom of the top 20 put up average scores for admitted students, and 830 was above average, and is probably considerably above average for a domestic student who hasn't done a masters. The only way I could see it being a negative is if you're international and applying to MIT/Harvard/a few others.

I am an international student though But I'm not targeting at schools that top. I got my undergraduate education in the States from a top liberal arts college not famous for math. I wonder if they would put me in the international student pool or the domestic student pool. Sigh!

Quit crying, you little babies. Anything above 80% is perfect.

Yes! I'm STILL doing my happy dance over my 88%. I am so PROUD of myself, and no amount of crying emoticons over scores similar to mine is going to take that away from me.

[Gyamco]

870, 91%

But my GRE is too low (146) for me to apply for a good school

I assume this is the verbal score? In this case, if you are an international it is not that bat. I am in a top tier school, and we have lots of internationals with 30% in verbal
