Hi,
A friend of mine just did the test exam in physics on GRE homepage today, his ambitions are to receive a PhD-studentship at Harvard, MIT, Princeton, Stanford, etc in Theoretical Physics.
He said that he only got scaled score = 640 {36.5 raw score} and he was wondering if there is any point doing this GRE exam, which he has on saturday, since he is afraid that these universities will care since they will be noticed if he gets a bad score on saturday since he is quite unprepared.
The Q is, should he skip GRE now on saturday totally and do it someother time, or can he "at least try"? Is 640 really bad, or is it "ok"?
