Just wanted to thank everyone...I just eavesdropped on this whole conversation. I posted a similar question in the wrong forum. =) Thanks for all of the advice!

What do you mean by deposit? There is still much I am not understanding about the PhD process...

I have received invitations from two different schools to attend a recruitment event at their expense. I'm assuming this is a good thing, but I'm wondering just *how* good. Is this a guaranteed acceptance? Or something like "hey, we have 5 spots and we like 10 of you. We're going to bring you here to fight to the death for those 5 spots." Thanks!

Are you male or female? Male...not sure. Female: try Morrells, Clarks, or eccos. They are pricey, but they have comfortable versions of shoes that look dressy enough to wear with pants, yet are good for lengthy walks. I have a mary-jane type style in both black and brown, and they have made it through 4 years and still look brand new (and my feet no longer ache at the end of the day).

I'm kind of confused on this topic, as my "estimated score" at the facility (taken in November) was 670-770, but my scaled score (163) corresponds to 650 on the chart linked above.
