The GRE math is actually a dumbed down version of the SAT math so it's not surprising there's no signal left among engineering students.
The GRE math is actually a dumbed down version of the SAT math so it's not surprising there's no signal left among engineering students. Probably most engineering students have gotten better at math since high school. The GRE verbal is a great predictor of success in CS grad school and any kind of science grad school because it's so heavily g-loaded. Verbal scores are very hard to game and correlate well with raw IQ even when people try to study for the test and artificially improve scores. Antonyms, vocabulary, and reading comprehension are very good measures of the same mental ability that deep cutting edge research requires. Of course, that doesn't work for non-fluent English speakers.
