关于物理SUB低分要不要送的问题
我的物理SUB的raw score是62分,非常低的一个分数。换算后可能800都不到吧。 vI~ V3^2l许多人就说,如果把这样的分送过去,会有负面作用。q Z6DZ n
我不知道这样的说法是怎么传出来的。没有任何一个官方网站或者招生委员会的人这样说过吧,全是中国的学生自己感觉的。

Dear Yuchun,S?%KJf+w\!`"U
I would advise you to use the score rather than hiding it. Not having this score at all could put your application at a disadvantage unless other parts of it can make up for the missing score, such as a high GPA, research experience, publications. You could also try to retake the test if you have a chance..T/ks3d,q5U0C?

Dear Yuchun Li, f+|-Y/?,ut#tum`
Each application is considered as a whole and a strength in one area can override a weakness in another. 78% is an acceptable score. Please send your official score. It is not a good idea to try and hide the score.
Sincerely,~K7{NF!N'bg.S'A

我77%还准备寄送的"。我感觉只要考了,为什么不寄送呢,至少证明你在专业外语方面还是很好的吧
我不是个尽善尽美的人,我感觉只要努力进行了。77%就是我的努力,我必须接受自己

你要不寄,美国佬会认为你没考到700,我一点都不夸张。
不要把美国佬当傻子,你真没考?你没考申请啥,你不知道?鬼才信!

如果你申物理的, 这分无论如都要寄, 就算考650都要寄. 去查一下就知道, 美国除了Top10中少数几个学校, 被录取者的GRE物理平均分一般就680-800左右. 如果考虑到有一大批990的人, 其实有相当多人GRE物理分很低. 最重要的还是看研究经验. 有个老美GRE物理才5xx分, 但有在很大的研究组做过几年的经验, 一样被Top10录取. 如果你不寄, 基本录取无望.

以UFL为例,UFL物理排名大概在50左右。我记得他家sub的minimum就是600多,主要原因其实是美国佬的物理sub一般都很烂。但是在美国人眼里,作为中国人sub考个900确实也不值得炫耀,他们也习惯了看到不少sub很高的中国申请者。Zkco%H%u^%Ep

各个学校对sub的看法会有所不同,所以不能一概而论。我只能说LZ你这个分基本上用于申请不会有任何负面影响,只有极少数学校很看重sub成绩,譬如UIUC, 只是一点个人观点。申请要坚定自己的一些想法,能够适当取舍各个地方看到的经验教训,不宜随便听取他人的意见。hZ$rQ [G|

我的打算是寄。无论是required, recommended,还是压根没有提到SUB。J;Z[3KA H
相信自己的每一个决定,接受自己的污点,承认自己的努力,才是一个真正的qualified man。\)uz@g
祝大家申请顺利 难道楼主的大名是 春哥???? 春哥啊 要膜拜下! 62的分 是肯定能上800的 考了就寄出去吧
当然春哥不会被这些问题困扰的::11

I do not think the Admissions committee will consider an 800 subject gyO*Q9CZ/rN2YlY
test score to be low. I think it is a very sufficient score. The main e[1G,Mm|1`u
reason they look at that score is to estimate whether a student is
likely to pass our qualifying exam, once admitted to the program. All
applicants need to submit their subject test score in order to be
considered for admission, so you do need to include it. Although it may ] h.g[ }a*_*_
be true that many of the applicants from China have higher subject
score, your score is very much in the acceptable range of all
applicants. The committee will be looking more at your letters of 7L.C)RF\JhiU6B
recommendation, research experience, and TOEFL (especially speaking)
scores.T hey will want to know (from your transcript) that you have a #@B!YG JRS
sufficient physics course base as well.

Jane ::z1 谢谢 2和4都是我说的原话,大概是一年或者两三年前说的,LZ你能挖出来真不容易。。 其实美国的学生考的也不错,因为他们有的考好几次,看看他们的论坛吧 [url]http://www.physicsgre.com/[/url] 谢谢lz!
