SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on the experiences and scores of participants regarding the GRE Subject Tests, specifically in Math and Physics. Notable scores include a Math score of 900 (99th percentile) and a Physics score of 920 (91st percentile). Participants express concerns about the significance of GRE scores for graduate school admissions, with some emphasizing that performance on the GRE does not solely determine success in academia. The conversation highlights the balance between academic achievements and external commitments, such as work and personal life.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of GRE Subject Tests, particularly in Math and Physics.
  • Familiarity with percentile rankings and their implications for graduate school admissions.
  • Knowledge of the graduate school application process and its components.
  • Awareness of the impact of academic performance on career opportunities.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the latest GRE Subject Test formats and scoring methodologies.
  • Explore strategies for balancing work and study to improve GRE performance.
  • Investigate the role of GRE scores in specific graduate programs, particularly in STEM fields.
  • Learn about alternative pathways to graduate school for non-traditional students.
USEFUL FOR

Prospective graduate students, particularly those in STEM fields, academic advisors, and individuals seeking to understand the relevance of GRE scores in the admissions process.

Ok, I´ll start this thread since it seems nobody has done it before for this season.

:cool: Sweet! I'll use a crayon when I fill out your test. :biggrin:
 
Physics 580 30th Percentile. Ohhh you know your jealous that or I am an idiot. I think its a bit of both. Sad part is I just won the award for the being the best senior physics major. Its just hard to have time to study when you go to school and work a full time job. Well itll get me in where I want to go.
 
shows that accolades mean
 
Math 980 99.9%

where's your school?
I just asked for a transfer to engineering school from physics.. I just scared if I can't get at least second upper in my school it would be doom and gloom because I think it's going to be hard to find job if I don't go to grad. school. Now my prof. wants to talk to me about that. I just feel so old for physics, I am almost 28 btw this year and I am still freshman.
