Hi, everyone! Another non-traditional student here, finishing my BA this semester in my late-early-thirties. I also wonder how this might figure into admissions decisions, of course worrying it could work against me somehow. The evaluation process feels so mysterious anyway that it's hard not to obsess. Some days I feel somewhat confident and other days I wonder why I applied anywhere at all. The advice I got from professors unanimously was to apply only to PhD programs, but so many people here have applied to MA programs as well that I'm wondering if I should have listened. For financial reasons, I also applied to an unusually small number of programs. My GPA is 3.98 overall, 4.10 in philosophy. GRE 170V, 161Q, 5.0AW. My main interests are normative ethics, political philosophy, and feminist philosophy. To a lesser extent I'm interested in philosophy of mind too.
