Money-Grubbing Bastards
So, apparently the GRE scores are available today. You can call a phone number and get your score reported to you, if, of course, you are willing to pay the $10 fee. Yes. This is ten US Dollars to listen to a computer tell you that your score was “Sev-en-hun-dred-and-for-ty-five, percentile eight-y-sev-en”
I’m pretty sure I’ll wait. It’s not as if my score will magically be better if I call sooner, or that there’s any reason to pay money to get it. Of course, they’re going to gouge me when I get score reports sent out. They send 4 reports with the testing fee, and its $15 per school to get additional ones sent out. Since I didn’t know where they should send reports yet when I took the CS one, I bet they’re going to extort me for $90 just to send the scores on that one out to my six schools.
Fucking ETS!
