Where you land
That is around the population average; solid, with clear room to push higher. Verbal is your fastest lever from here.
Verbal and Quant percentiles are the exact official ETS figures. The total percentile is an estimate (a normal model), since ETS does not publish a simple total table.
Why Verbal and Quant percentiles differ so much
The scales are not symmetric. A 160 sits at about the 84th percentile on Verbal but only the 50th on Quant, because the test-taking populations differ. That is why a balanced 320 means very different work depending on your background: STEM applicants grind Quant, humanities applicants grind Verbal.
The Verbal and Quant figures here are the official ETS percentile ranks for each scaled score. The total percentile is an estimate, since ETS does not publish a simple total table. See our editorial standards for sourcing.
