Getting Your GRE Subject Test Scores

What scores are reported?

Every GRE Subject Test yields a total score on a 200 to 990 score scale, in 10-point increments. Each of the individual test scales occupies only a portion of the 200 to 990 score range.

The Physics and Psychology Tests also yield subscores on a 20–99 score scale, in 1-point increments. Each of the individual test subscore scales occupies only a portion of the 20 to 99 score range.
 

When and how will I get my scores?

Your official GRE Subject Test score(s) will be available in your ETS account approximately 5 weeks after your test date. You’ll receive an email notification from ETS when they are available.

ETS will also send an official Institution Score Report to the score recipients you designated during registration at that time.

What’s in my official score report?

Accessible in your ETS account, your official GRE Test-taker Score Report is intended only for your information and personal records. It contains your:

• contact information (name, phone number and email)
• date of birth
• gender
• intended graduate major
• test date(s)
• GRE test score(s) and the associated percentile ranks
• authorized score recipients or fellowship sponsors and the scores reported to those institutions
• cumulative record of scores reported within the last 5 years

If you wish to have a paper copy, you can print one from your ETS account. It won't be sent to you by mail.
