    Hopeful678 got a reaction from youngcharlie101 in Should I address my low GRE score in my statement of purpose?   
    I also had heart palpitations about this test, took it 3 times and my 3rd time still did badly, 302 overall, 153 v 149 q 6 aw. I don't know what to do either, i'm just going to apply to my top choices, I'm not a bad student either 3.73 and 2 ivy league degrees and nothing I post on this site gets addressed ever. I wish you the best of luck though, I'm tired of making myself sick trying to get in a Phd program.

    Hi, your health comes first. You really need to be mentally and physically healthy in a PhD program. Sometimes it's better to leave if its not a good fit, you need a good mentor that you get along with and that fits with you. If it's making you ill to keep going, I wouldn't advise it. You don't want to kill yourself for a PhD. I'm sorry if this is not the news you wanted but I'm telling you the truth. On my campus 4 people have already committed suicide this semester alone. Please at least try to find a adviser that fits with you research wise and personality wise.

    INTJ, but I can tell you from experience, if you know any of these sorts of tests you can make it say whatever you want.
    on that note I can tell you :
    This happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals; for instance, they tend to have little patience and less understanding of such things as small talk and flirtation (which most types consider half the fun of a relationship). To complicate matters, INTJs are usually extremely private people, and can often be naturally impassive as well, which makes them easy to misread and misunderstand. Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense. :-) This sometimes results in a peculiar naivete', paralleling that of many Fs -- only instead of expecting inexhaustible affection and empathy from a romantic relationship, the INTJ will expect inexhaustible reasonability and directness.
    Describes me perfectly
