Huh, that's interesting. My VCI score is very high, but I earned (?) 550 in the critical reading section, while my math score was 760. lol
This discrepancy could have come about because I wasn't treated for ADHD at the time of the test. After all, Critical Reading requires more concentration and attention than the math problems do (in my opinion).
But yeah, a 100-point difference isn't *too* bad. My gap was way worse
My GRE had an even worse gap. Try 790 math vs 430 critical reading. (The old version of the GRE was on an 800-point scale like the SATs.)
I think 790 was like the 99th percentile, while 430 was like the 31st percentile lol I studied engineering, though... which is probably why my math score was high.
The problem with the GRE critical reading was that most of the questions seemed to be 9-choice multiple choice questions... so you couldn't really guess anything
