We prove an improvement on Schmidt’s upper bound on the number of number fields of degree n and absolute discriminant less than X for 6≤ n≤ 94 . We carry this out by improving and applying a uniform bound on the number of monic integer polynomials, having bounded height and discriminant divisible by a large square, that we proved in a previous work [7].
