mk-8 reacted to Ufffdaaa in Rhet/Comp 2018
It's difficult to keep track of the rhet/comp people on the "acceptances" thread. Does anyone want to update here?
I've been rejected from OSU and Wisconsin, but I have a phone interview with Syracuse. Still waiting on Tennessee, Purdue, and ASU.

@mk-8: That's awesome about UT-Austin! It's a great school AND you'd get to live in Austin!

mk-8 got a reaction from Carly Rae Jepsen in Post-Acceptance, Pre-Visit
I've been reflecting on this over the past day, and this is so important. Only one of the programs I was accepted to for MAs did a visit for MA students, and I felt like I needed to show off and impress them. This might have been partly because I was insecure etc etc, but the people there also made me feel like I needed to do that as (In particular, one really awkward conversation with a POI stands out..) So, just another thing to think about. Someone in the pinned thread put it like this: this is a school's time to impress you. You've already impressed them with your application materials!

Yeah, whenever I say that to others, they're like "What are you TALKING about!" and I'm just like uhh... it's just not good. I got into an argument about it once because someone was like "but he's creating a UNIVERSE!" which I guess is true, but the writing doesn't have to be bad!
My roommate owns all the books, so maybe I'll give it another go.

UMN- Twin Cities, but I applied to the history program. Y'all are just fun, so some of the history people are posting here too.

mk-8 got a reaction from Narrative Nancy in Is a 157V enough for English MAs?
I just wanted to find this thread to say this (I didn't post earlier because I didn't want to jinx myself lolol):
I never retook the GRE for PhD applications. I just received an acceptances to UT-Austin, who list 90% on their admissions page. I was in 75%. Last night I was reading old GRE threads panicking about my scores, but it's totally possible.
