  1. SAT: 800 math 710 verbal

    GRE; 800math, 740 verbal, 780 on the logic puzzle section, forget what I got on the subject test

    Physicist, researcher


  2. I got 670 in math and 480 in that other bit that i never cared much about.  I have a Mechanical Engineering degree.  I knew that this was the right thing for me to do, because in a quarter of a century i've done nothing but write computer software.

    Many people will say that they do poorly on tests.  I'll say it.  But i took the SATs twice, and 670 was my better score.  Kids who were better at tests got scores in the mid 700's, and one guy got an 800.

    Engineering school is a considerable amount of work.  I'm into hard work, and initially signed up for an overload.  Not very bright.  Only about 1 in 4 graduate.  My goal was to achieve competence.  That meant that i was prepared for follow on classes.  There's no substitute for this.  And that's why half of my school's population was freshmen.

    As an Engineer, i can do anything, but i don't have time to do everything.  Clearly, i should have been working on life extension.  I saw it coming...

  3. SAT - 1170 total, with 660 in math - Highest score out of 2 tials.

    GRE - 1190 toatal with a 760 in math.

    Currently working on my nuclear engineering PhD, so I'm still a student.

  4. SAT 800 math, 680 verbal

    SAT 2: 800 math, 780 chemistry, 720 writing

    GRE: 800 math, no idea on the other areas

    physics research
