Been lurking on this thread even though I'm not applying for PhD in the next cycle (shooting for an MA first; I'm coming out of a science-based undergrad experience), and oh my goodness I've got a lot to learn... 

Same here.  Shooting for my MA first.  I switched from Biology into English my junior year of undergrad and still graduated on time, so in many cases I feel like a baby in the field.  Because I only had 2 years exp. by graduation, a lot of my papers then seem novice to me at this point, and I have yet to produce the work I can be most proud of.  This summer I plan on taking a couple graduate courses/seminars at open universities in the Los Angeles area, hopefully, to produce the work that'll get me into the next stage of my career.  Cheers to growth and hunger.
