Default Re: I just crushed the gre

Congratulations, bey. That's great; I hope it smooths the path into grad school if that's what you want to do.

I did okay on the GRE way back when, though it was not really a requirement for most Canadian grad programs (and the few American programs to which I applied weren't going to take me no matter what).

The test, however, doesn't directly measure the things that (in my experience) differentiate grad students -- and professors -- further downstream. E.g., determination, focus, work ethic, consistency, and the emotional skills needed to work in frequently weird context that demands an active commitment to social learning, but is driven thoroughly atomistic evaluations and incentives.
