I've been lurking on here for a while, so I feel like it's finally time for me to post!
I graduated with a MA in linguistics from the University of Georgia in August, and I've been enjoying the break from school, but I'm looking forward to going back for a PhD. My area of interest is laboratory phonology, the phonetics-phonology interface, and speech perception. I'm planning on applying to UC San Diego, UC Davis, University of Washington, Illinois, SUNY Stony Brook, UMass-Amherst, and Cornell.
My grad GPA is 3.89 and my undergrad GPA (in English lit. from a small state school in CA) is 3.82. I bombed the GREs the first time that I took them, so I decided to re-take them to increase my chances for PhD admissions. The estimated score was somewhere between 1200 and 1310. Not great, but better than the first time!
Now I just need to get my SOP written...
