Anyone else starting this interdisciplinary program in the fall? I'd love to hear from you!

Anybody heard from UC yet? If so, what area (Lit/Comp/ CW)? I've been accepted elsewhere, but I really like this program and am anxious to hear back.

Hey all, I am applying to U of Cincinnati's English Ph.D. creative writing (fiction) track. I found it perplexing that they require the Literature in English GRE subject test, and I was wondering if any of the rest of you found yourself in a similar situation. I took the test today, and think I did mediocre at best. I can't imagine that they would heavily weigh the lit test for creative writing emphasis, but I'm worried that my score will hurt my otherwise strong app (700 verbal GRE, 4.0 GPA, a handful of publications and presentations). Anybody out there apply to UC's program specifically? If so, how did you do on the lit test?
