I teach EFL to East Asian students. I am glad that I have pursued this career (I actually considered getting my MA Applied Linguistics for a long time). I'd like to say that many of the skills I have developed teaching EFL will transfer over quite well to SLP. 
In addition, I have managed to be active in the international SLP community. I have shadowed SLPs in international schools and hospitals, and have volunteered for SLP related charitable organizations. I'm hoping that this will give my SOPs an edge.

fl317---No, you can only choose which test you would like to send; you cannot mix and match scores from different tests. If you get a 160V/140Q/4AWA, and a 140V/160Q/4AWA, it is unfortunately not possible to submit a 160V/160Q/4AWA...ETS is not going to be that reasonable when it could just force you to pay 205 more to play their dumb little game again.

Just out of curiosity, are you guys saying what you think a decent/average GPA is, or a *good* GPA?
 
I was answering based on an above average definition of good, but with the 3.5 range answers, I'm thinking maybe I'm going in a slightly different direction. 

Yeah! I got into a few schools, the first year I applied. Just apply really smart, all over the country, and work for a good GRE score. Schools need a number to justify reading the rest of your application. 

I worked as a receptionist at a pediatric speech clinic. 
Honestly just doing the front desk end was really informative. I know more about insurance and billing than I ever wanted to, but that clinic management stuff is important! I also learned a lot kind of just by osmosis...just chatting with the SLP's and overhearing their conversations. I was also able to help out with therapy even though I wasn't a certified SLPA in my state, but I'm not sure if that's allowed everywhere as those things vary so much from state to state.
