GRE cut off

Are there GRE cut offs in philosophy? Respondents to this question on Lieter Reports. The answers so far suggest not, but they do suggest that students with low GRE scores usually have less impressive records, letters and writing samples. Responses also suggest that if GRE scores are low then the applicant needs to make up for it in other parts of the application.
Around 700 is the mark that one needs to reach in order to avoid a critical eye.
