  1. Omg I’m waiting on MN too. Expecting rejection but happy to know things are moving along. Literally refreshing email every 5 seconds ????
  2. Being able to vent and receiving support and positivity from this thread has been so helpful! I agree with @Goldie and @capslock. Our self-worth is not tied to a degree. I woke up today with the expression "Life is good" on my mind. I had dreamed it! It is simple but it made me smile. I hope that positive outlook can be passed to you all as we wait it out until April. All the best to everyone!
  3. Uggg!! Waiting is the hardest part. I understand what you’re saying. I so hope you get in somewhere!!! They’ve got to be able to see past test scores, they’re sociologists, ya know?!
  4. Thanks. I’m glad you stopped checking as often. I agree, my anxiety was getting out of control so I needed to seek support from others going through the same thing. I haven’t told many people bc I didn’t want to jeopardize my work. I’m rooting for you! GREs are only 1 piece of the puzzle. Take care.
  5. Awwwww!!! I’m sorry you’re feeling this way. I can relate. My quant score was 146 if it makes you feel any better! I can’t remember—do you have your Masters? Feel free to pm me but I’m sure I’m not alone in saying if this is what you want, go for it and keep trying! It couldn’t hurt to take time off from applying if you don’t get in. How many schools are you waiting to hear from?? All the best of luck!
  6. Thanks so much! That’s really nice, I appreciate it. I’m local and can’t move (spouse with job and all that)! I started thinking about it bc I read in their website they let candidates know about acceptance mid-late Jan and then about funding “by the end of January.” That was the statement that set me off. I keep telling myself if it’s meant to be it’ll be. I’m 32 so I feel “old” to be going for it but I finally feel ready to do it so now I’m like ahhh!! I want it so bad, ya know? I guess I still haven’t received that official no but am feeling pretty down. Thanks for reading!!
  7. I’m feeling pretty certain I didn’t get into Minnesota. I’m sad bc it was the only program I applied to. I’ve been out of school for a while (got MA in Soc in ‘09). Just venting ? Seems like a supportive group.
  8. Congratulations!! One of the Profs from my MA program went there and actually a person from my cohort completed a degree there a couple years ago. That’s awesome!
  9. Fingers crossed for us! New to the site so I accidentally posted a new comment.
  10. Yes!! I was certain I'd hear back today. I just want to know either way! The waiting is excruciating.
