GRE

who thinks i should retake the GRE?

i took it in december of 1999, so the scores should still be valid:

V 650, 92nd percentile
Q 720, 80th percentile
A 690, 84th percentile

that's not how they're scoring anymore, but still. thing is, i don't like those percentiles with eights in them. anyone have thoughts?

why do you have to take it again? Are you applying for a PhD program?

If so, find out their miminum requirements and if you meet them don't bother. Those are fine scores, and you could be off your game if you take it again, and then you're stuck with lower ones on your record.
