Thanks Mike!
Do you have any information whether Harvard, Stanford, or MIT will consider the IR score this year?, will it have an important weight this year?
Thanks!!!

I don't have any direct information along these lines, but here's a few links you may find helpful.

Responding to a PM:
Hi danzig, I don't have any specific information about Harvard, Stanford or MIT with regards to the IR score. I believe that, since it has been almost a year since its introduction, the IR is becoming a more relevant grade for next year's admissions. However, much like the AWA, getting a 7 or an 8 or a 6 on the IR won't really change anything on your admission. If you get a very low score, like a 2 or a 3, then that might be material versus a 7 or 8, much like how the AWA "cut off" is at 4. 4 and above, and it's pretty good, 3.5 or less, and you may be in trouble.

At this point I wouldn't be overly concerned about IR, use it as a good warm up for the rest of the exam, but if you get a 6 on it, don't get depressed wondering about what that means. Unless you get under 5, I wouldn't fret about the score. Students often retake the test to improve their score out of 800, very very rarely will someone contemplate redoing for an unimpressive AWA or IR score.

Hope this helps!
