AS OF LAST YEAR, both University of Central ^^^^ Wow, I HAD thought I did pretty well. How was this number (1000) arrived at? The highest score on an individual test is 800 in each section of the general (math, analytical, verbal) and 800 in the computer science subject advanced test. The scores are reported separately, to the student anyway. So, my question is how do I combine my four gre scores to compare to your 1000 point benchmark????
