Fig 1.
GRE Quantitative and verbal scores of IMSD students matriculating from 2007–11 who completed a PhD or a Master’s degree.
Top panel depicts GRE-Q% and lower panel depicts GRE-V% for 30 students who completed either a PhD (blue symbols) or Master’s degree (red symbols).
Fig 2.
Frequencies of GRE scores (Q% and V%), number of publications, months to degree, and faculty ranking are shown as indicated.

Summary statistics of GRE data.
Fig 3.
Associations between quantitative and verbal GRE scores and total number of publications.
Solid curves show the fitted values from the Poisson regression models (dashed lines are 95% confidence intervals) and the grey curves show lowess smoothers (locally weighted scatterplot smoother).
Fig 4.
Associations between quantitative and verbal GRE scores and total number of first author publications.
Solid curves show the fitted values from the Poisson regression models (dashed lines are 95% confidence intervals) and the grey curves show lowess smoothers (locally weighted scatterplot smoother).
Fig 5.
Associations between quantitative and verbal GRE scores and months to degree.
Solid curves show the fitted values from the Poisson regression models (dashed lines are 95% confidence intervals) and the grey curves show lowess smoothers (locally weighted scatterplot smoother).
Table 3.
Individual fellowships awarded to IMSD students matriculating from 2007–2011.
Fig 6.
Boxplots of GRE scores stratified by whether or not the students received a fellowship.
Data are for fellowships listed in Table 3. The raw data points are overlaid. From bottom to top, the horizontal lines of a boxplot show the minimum GRE score, 25th percentile, median, 75th percentile, and max values in a given group.
Fig 7.
Predicted probability of obtaining a fellowship as a function of GRE scores.
Data are for fellowships listed in Table 3. The raw data points are overlaid (0 = No fellowship, 1 = Fellowship).
Fig 8.
Associations between GRE scores and faculty ranking.
Solid curves show the fitted values from the Poisson regression models (dashed lines are 95% confidence intervals) and the grey curves shows lowess smoothers (locally weighted scatterplot smoother).
