Concentration? Bahhhhhahahahhhaha

I don't know what that is anymore. I'm on grad app autopilot.

[Metapod]

seriously. this is ridiculous. i've been trying to find out more about the current studenst in IEP, but it's hard...

[PhDreams]

I met a few on my visit. I was considering EPM before I decided to apply to AIE. Have you already checked out the profiles of alumni on the HGSE website? Also, I've seen that people have looked up programs on LinkedIn to get a feel for the background of current cohort members. I haven't tried it, but it was recommended on a thread.

[Metapod]

yeah...i looked up ppl on linkedin. I'm just really concerned because my GRE score was surprisingly really low....a lot lower than i expected. And it feels like many have worked for at least 3-4 years before goingto grad school....

Don't freak out! 4.4 is the average for EdM students, but if you notice the stats the range starts at 0. So, that would mean that there have been students admitted with no prior work experience. Stay positive!

[Metapod]

i knowwww but stilllllll. i'm like freaking over everything right now....hahah.

Are you currently working/studying?

[PhDreams]

both.

but it looks like you have work experience relevant to your program! don't freak out... plus it looks like you have some research experience too! and gre medians are just that...medians. People have gotten in with scores lower and higher.

[Metapod]

thanks for the encouragement...I hope we'll hear good news in coming weeks...

[PhDreams]

You're welcome! We're all here for each other on the fora. It's really helped me to talk to other applicants too.

Best of luck to you! You seem like you are really dedicated to your field. Any program would be lucky to have you!

[Metapod]

Good luck to you as well!!!!

I've heard from Vanderbilt and Michigan.

[PhDreams]

I've heard from Vanderbilt and Michigan.

I think Higher Ed decisions come out a little sooner than other programs at Michigan. I'm excited that MA applicants are starting to get news.

Congrats, again!

[Metapod]

Congrats Revo!

[Metapod]

Did Vanderbilt send a decision about IEPM already?

[Revo]

Thanks Double Shot and bigred65! Good luck and happy e-mails/letters to all.

[PhDreams]

I feel like the MA candidates should start to hear something soon. Most PhD decisions seem like they have been made already. So nervous!!!!!!!!
