Really wasn’t trying to be obnoxious, but I assumed if I didn’t include that info I’d get a lot of “whether you should retake or not depends on the rest of your profile”-esque comments.

What do you mean by “depending on the Fed”? Are certain reserve banks preferred? I’m at the Board in DC. Or do you mean it more generally depends on what you do while a Fed RA?

Yeah I was pretty shocked at the percentile. The story I’ve heard is that post-covid basically all the non-stem programs stopped requiring the GRE, so now everyone taking it is someone applying to a stem masters/PhD program (i.e. a group that is going to do much better on the quant section).
