Your GRE is WAY TOO LOW. Retake it! Surely you can get at least a 150+ on the Verbal section. EDIT: Your score is only good for 5 years anyway! Study, study, study and retake it!- 78 replies

I think we had different definitions of "technical" in mind, which is fine.

Well, it's totally true, lol. I hate to soapbox, it just seems to be a symptom of CSD being dominated by non-technical ladies who are just following in the footsteps of the newly-admitted people from previous years. I'm a liberal arts major myself, but go look at acceptances for any STEM stuff and you won't see this archaic Facebook Group stuff. Imagine if somebody said, "hey guys, has the Myspace group been created yet??" EDIT: More women than men use Facebook. VASTLY more women than men are in CSD. CSD prioritizes quantitative skills less than, or as little as, even the least-technical comparable STEM discipline (Psych, perhaps). Scores on the quantitative section of the GRE correlate with the extent to which members of a group tend to be more technical or less technical than others. I should have made myself more clear before. By "technical" I meant techie people...who aren't on Facebook.

Out of curiosity - why do all of these SLP programs keep using Facebook in 2019? Are you guys just creatures of habit and/or don't know a better way?? Reading all of the admit results where people are STILL asking, "FACEBOOK GROUP?? FACEBOOK GROUP CREATE YET??" breaks my heart. There are vastly superior tools to Facebook that accomplish the goal of staying connected to your cohort, without dragging your entire past and family and ex-lovers and god knows who else into your professional world. Why not Discord? Or GroupMe? Or almost anything else? Break the cycle! This isn't 2005, 2010, or even 2015. It'll be 2020 next year - stop making Facebook groups like you're little old ladies and use modern collaboration tools!
