10. Good Luck!

I just finished my first semester of grad school, as it turn out this shit is pretty hard! Or maybe I just care more now, than I did in undergrad. I love it.

May I inquire as to what you plan on studying?

(Mine's Occupational Hygiene, i.e. how to keep workers safe on the job)

Once again, It's a lotta work, but very satisfying--and I'm pretty sure that goes for all programs) :hi:

12. Illustration

Its been 6 years since I got my BA in Illustration

[eyepaddle]

15. Cool,

It took me nine years to make the move and go back. I won't say it "put the fire in the belly" but it certainly honed it.

I'm glad I waited, it all seems so much clearer now.

[Menshevik]

24. agreed

just finished my first semester of grad school and wow, it's a lot more work than I expected. They also grade quite a bit harder here...it's frustrating.

[Catch22Dem]

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

[Ediacara]

29. CONGRATS!!!

Mine are all sent too, and my transcripts are being sent out. Just have to prod my letter writers to hurry up and write, and study for the GRE (18th Feb :-( ).

[eyepaddle]

30. I thought you were already in--

do you mean your school has an undergrad program in Paleo? We had people who sort of specialized in that here, but all the degrees just said "geology."

You'll do fine with GRE. Do you have to take one of the subject ones, or just the regular GRE? (which is all I had to take, thank goodness)

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

39. I'll send my vibes to ya

:thumbsup:
