This post is laughable. The most important thing is the undergrad institution you went to. If you went to a crappy private school or a public school, forget about top programs. Check current students' and alums' profiles on top programs' websites to convince yourself that this is how it works. Also, GRE scores are placed into context. Say, a top program received 50 applications from Chinese students with perfect GRE scores, perfect GPA's and perfect LORs (they probably paid some agency to put together a perfect application for them). Of course admissions are not going to admit 50 Chinese students, maybe one or two at most. They are also looking for diversity you see?
