AI Thread Summary
Concerns about submitting GRE scores by application deadlines, particularly for programs like UW-Madison and the University of Texas, are prevalent. Applicants are advised to submit all other application materials on time and note that GRE scores are pending. It's generally understood that schools will likely hold applications until the GRE scores arrive, but they are unlikely to dismiss candidates due to delays caused by ETS. This approach is crucial for those relying on financial aid, as timely submission of materials is essential for consideration.

A quick question for everyone.

Today I took the Physics GRE and while I think it went pretty well I am worried now that I might have a problem. Dec. 1st deadlines.

A lot of programs like UW-Madison and U of Texas have this deadline for all application materials. Can my GRE scores make it in time to these places? I am worried that I won't be quick enough for financial aid consideration. Without fin. aid I can't go to school.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Send in the parts of the application you are responsible for. Add a note in a relevant section that GRE scores are pending and will be sent in by ETS when they are done grading the tests.

The schools will probably put your application aside until the GRE score comes in, but I doubt that they would refuse to consider you because ETS can't get the scores in by that deadline. That is not your fault. (Unless they expected you to take the October test, but I doubt this is the case.)

Thread 'Working for defense company?'

I don't know if anyone on here works for any of the well known defense companies of your country, whichever country you are from?? Also, if you choose to work in one, do you think the engineering education provide from your school would adequately prepare you for the job. What do I mean by that? Well if you work at say Lockheed Martin and you work in the latest iteration of a missile or if you work at Pratt & Whitney, they assign you to work in the team helping out with building the jet...
