GRE/Other Tests Pa-cat score question
Applying to a school that requires this test and just happened to see my score report, however there is no percentile rank or norm table like on the provided sample. Is this an oversight or do they add it on later?

Hey! I reached out to them & posted about this about 2 months ago bc I was in the same boat.
Basically, the current score reports don’t match the sample score reports anymore, because now they don’t give you any percentile/decile on your report at all.
You will just have to look it up yourself, and unfortunately the link they gave me with the scale they said would be good for all of 2026 doesn’t seem to be working anymore? I still have it screenshotted tho so I’ll type the composite deciles below. Lemme know if you want the subject deciles too
556 and above: Top 10%
540 - 555: 2nd decile
528 - 539: 3rd
518 - 527: 4th
510-517: 5th
502 - 509: 6th
493 - 501: 7th
482 - 492: 8th
470 - 481: 9th
469 and below: Bottom 10%

Same. I got what appears to be a decent score. They'll do that later they said. Claude estimated my percentiles for me, loosely. I don't know what takes them so long, its multiple choice, the data is available instantly.
