But I have heard that the you just need to pass a threshold of standardized tests, while direction matching, experience and reference letters are more important? Is a 325 gre sufficient? Or 330?

别说，我还真的是第一次听，要不也不会发这个贴了...谢谢

哪怕去utd rankings的网站拿JAR JAE TAR拉个排名，都比usnews有用。还是抓紧多做些功课

I pulled out some information online on the GRE, and can confirm that your scores have a percentile around the 80th, which is good but not outstanding. Note that the faculty admission team are generally only interested in percentiles when they review applicants' test scores. While few schools explicitly specify cutoff scores, a good rule of thumb is to aim for the 90th percentile or above. If for any reason you are not quite up to dealing with the GRE, why not attempt at the GMAT?

I am not sure about the percentile of your scores on the language proficiency test, but it is probably below the 80th.

To reiterate, generally the importance of test scores becomes more prominent if one's undergraduate (and graduate in many cases) degree is from 'average' institutions.

不好意思，好像回错人了。我回帖主的。
不知道帖主为啥那么固执
dirty work RA推荐信就"起到造型的作用"，
方向匹配更是“我信你个鬼”，80%的最后做的research 跟SOP里不一样

一个稍微得体的phd项目至少45个申请人，假设面15个，总共顺次offer 6个，最终enroll 2个。
45个申请人中至少25个中国人，最多shortlist 10个中国人，
假设都没有强推，都没有top journal under review
但总得按优先级看申请资料吧
那就按GT GPA高低依次看
前15 中国 申请人，committee还会认真斟酌面谁不面谁
垫底儿5个人就算没把的资料直接扔垃圾桶，最多看每个人资料1分钟
你还指望committe把你从被小秘排到最底的那叠资料里捞出来啊

中肯的。如果没有强推的话，把标化考一考似乎是目前唯一能做的事情了。

标化成绩过线即可，是因为phd申请里面标化本身权重不是很高，更多的看推荐信。如果没有强势推荐信的话，有标化成绩至少可以稍微增加一点说服力。虽然效力可能不及推荐信，但是站在目前这个时间点，很难短时间突击出来好的强推了。

加油啊，我连ap的推荐信都没，更凄惨，可也要咬咬牙坚持到最后

请问一下机器筛选是不是就是看标化成绩筛选？以前只听说过找工作机器筛选。谢谢
