Sorry for the cheesy post with lack of educational context on the admission process, but I have to share my happy news! Friday, within the same hour I got an email from both of my top two schools announcing I was accepted. It may not be a big deal for some, but I suffered with major anxiety my first two years of undergrad and thought I would never get in due to my grades. I worked so hard to get internships, pracitcum, and volunteer experience that showed my dedication and made up for my low grades. It is possible guys! Showing you care and want to be a part of the program is the m

How did this interview go? I have mine next week!

Hi Guys! I hope everyone is doing well. I am freaking out. After submitting my personal statement I found out the first page was sent sideways. Is this ring to end my application in the trash? I cannot resubmit it. The application is for social work to add context. The paper is free of any other errors and displays good substance and writing skills. It was a silly error. Anyone else have a similar issue?

Hi All! How long was your resume for your gradate school application? Mine is 1 and 1/2 pages due to lots of experiences. Is that too long?

yes, just a little bit of quizlet and Kaplan prep plus!

Yup I am in close contact with all the schools I am applying to and even told them my scores, they said they were fine, but I am just freaking out. It's really important in my life to get into grad school ASAP, but I think I'm well rounded and the programs seem to like me!

Is it going to hurt me a lot that the schools are going to see this initial score, they have already been sent out!

Everywhere I'm applying is mid tier and none of them require the gre aside from one 😕 maybe I messed up sending them, I can retake though!

I am a bit confused though, is that not a decent verbal score?

2 weeks!

Hey guys! Congrats to anyone that took the GRE today or recently. It's exhausting and most definitely a lot of work. I am applying to grad school and don't know many other people that have gone through the admissions process so I am using forums and reddit to learn more about the process. I took the GRE today and am worried my scores are awful! VERBAL-155 and QUANT-143. I am so sad about the math. Does anyone have any tips/resources to improve basic math skills quickly? I am not applying to a math based program so I am just shooting for a 150. Also any tips on how to better

Hi All! I am new here to both reddit and applying to grad school and could use some advice and possible assurance :). I graduated this December from a major public university with a major in social services. I received a 3.02. I have about four Ws on my transcript and two FS, and quite a few Cs. Two semesters in my early years of school I did very poorly due to a medical issue I was dealing with. When you look at my past 4 semesters though I have done quite well and clearly have an upward trajectory of increasing my gpa each year. Would you write an extra statement to the admissions team s
