GREs

Just got back my GRE scores.

Verbal 610/800 (87th percentile)
Quantitatve 800/800 (94th percentile)
Analytical 6.0/6 (96th percentile)

I'm amazed I got 6s on the writing, I was seriously expecting scores in the 4 and 5 range. People don't generally seem to like my writing style, and spelling and grammar (of which mine is exquisite) aren't counted. I'm rather annoyed by the verbal scoring. I have an extensive vocabulary, yet most of the questions involved words even I didn't know, most of which lacked obvious greek or latin roots.
