  1. Hi folks, Yep, I too have been lurking for awhile, but the time has come to join the ranks of the 2015 Ph.D. hopefuls. I took the GRE a couple of weeks ago (very early, I know -- wanted to have time to brush up and retake over the summer if need be), and got 162 V, 148 Q, and 4.5 on the writing. The latter score annoys me quite a bit, and I wish I could see what I did wrong...but alas. In any event, since I'll be applying to a lot of top schools, I think I need to retake the GRE. I've got a 3.93 GPA as a rising senior at College of William & Mary (undergraduate English major), but I have one aspect going against me a bit: my age. I'm in my mid-30s, even though, as just mentioned, I'm an undergrad. Anyhow, I'm glad this community exists, and I'm sure I'll be an active member for the next year or so. I've already read a ton of helpful advice, and I have little doubt that I'll be learning a great deal more in the coming months... Shaun
