## GRE percentile questions

What does a GRE percentile mean?

It is the share of test takers who scored lower than you. A Verbal percentile of 76 means you scored higher than 76% of test takers in that section.

Why are some percentiles shown as a dash?

ETS reports no percentile for those scores, such as Quant 130 to 132 and Verbal 130\. A dash means there is no published figure, not that the percentile is zero.

Is there a percentile for the Verbal and Quant total?

ETS reports percentiles for each section separately, not for the combined 260 to 340 total. This calculator shows the total as a sum and gives each section's percentile beside it.

Which test takers does the data cover?

All GRE General Test takers from 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2025, as published in the ETS GRE General Test Interpretive Data. Percentiles are updated by ETS each year, so check the current table for the latest figures.
