Definitely don't. Include your GPA but not your GRE.
-
Anyone else attending UAB next fall? Anyone? Anyone?

I've heard that getting experience from multiple traing environments is desirable.

Back to the actual topic at hand...
I'd say research experience. I'm currently in my last year of undergraduate coursework and will attend grad school next year, and I know it's solely because I've already done research at the institution I'll be attending. Good GRE scores and a solid GPA will also take you places.

Go to this page and click the link that says 'online application.'

Did anyone who interviewed at Temple hear back with an acceptance yet? I see two waitlisted emails went out, but any offers?
Wondering the same thing.

Don't give up. If you give up, you'll never achieve your goals.
I recommend taking some time off after completing your undergraduate degree. Try to acquire some research experience before applying to a grad program. Also, improving that GPA is a must.

If the e-mail didn't explicitly say, I'd go with a step between casual and business. I wore a button-down striped shirt, dark pants, and black loafers to my social. Hope your interview goes well!

I would recommend a retest. A 160V is not a bad score, but your competitors may have verbal scores ≥165. Also, you may be doing some quantitative analysis (hard to believe, I know), depending on your grad program. A few days ago, I heard an NPR report from an English professor in Toronto who performed quantitative textual analyses on Agatha Christie's work to examine dementia's effect on her writing. Fascinating stuff, but it required some mathematical expertise – from an English department.
Granted, I'm in the social sciences world, so I'm no expert on English programs. Good luck!

Yeah, don't read after your applications have already been submitted. I'm petrified now.

I've found it mostly reliable. However, if you have an outdated version of Word (i.e., anything besides Word 2013), then I strongly suggest proofreading the citations. Actually, even if you have Word 2013, you should still proofread.

I still haven't heard anything from Washington. Should I be concerned?

Wear the suit! You'll make a nice impression.

It's ok, my letters are in and already glowing.
I was referring to the original poster, not you.

Hi! Anyone applying in UW Seattle developmental psych program? Have they emailed invites/decisions yet? Thanks!
Aah! I'm in the same boat. Have you heard yet?
-
I appreciate the artistry of your bitter sentiment. However, I just hope nothing gives away your identity here. If you're figured out, you pretty much just killed your chances of getting a glowing rec letter.

I found this article on writing an SOP really helpful. Good luck, all!

I also know I had some typos in my NSF personal statement. Whooooops. That's what happens when you turn off spellcheck.
Happened to me in my Penn State personal statement. I still got a call from a POI. Honestly, I don't know how that happened.
-
The only suggestion I can make is e-mailing your admissions departments, which you have done. I have a feeling they will understand, as you attempted to handle this as responsibly as possible.

I got a 5.0 out of 6 and have much experience working with ESL students in my university's writing center. Shoot me a DM if you wish to speak more thoroughly.

Is it to ask the department or the graduate school for such questions, in general?
I would strongly advise against that. The vibe I get from such a question is that you're trying to cut corners.
Still nothing from one school--ask for an extension?

Unless you really want to go to Boston, I'd say forget it and agree to UW.
