Life is Simpler Again...For a Short While

I know my posts have been nonexistent recently, but between school/finals, 28 hours a week at Wegmans, 5 hours a week grading papers, studying for GRE's, filling out grad school applications, and my semi-successful social life I haven't had a whole lot of time. But now finals are over, grading is done, both GRE exams are over, grad school applications are pretty well completed, and my social life has settled down some I now have more free time! We'll have to wait and see if this means that I'll post more, but it does mean that I'll at least be going to more movies (hence more review posts) and I'll have more time available for posts.

For those of you that I haven't talked to much over these busy months, here are some brief details:

- The GRE Math Subject Test is the hardest math test I have ever taken. Yet the math section of the regular GRE is one of the easiest math tests I have ever taken. Oh, and as for the verbal section of the GRE test, where the hell do they get some of these words? I still assert that some of them aren't even real words. (I still did more than fine on the verbal section though, somehow).

- I finally formed my final list of grad schools (approximately in order):
University of Washington
University of Oregon
University of Wisconsin
Washington State University
University of Minnesota
University of Wyoming
University of New Hampshire
SUNY Binghamton
(the last one is a safety school)

Hopefully I'll hear back from the schools by mid-March and I'll be all set for the Fall by the beginning of April. Then all I'll have to worry about is passing the comp exam at the end of the semester at Brockport to get my Masters.

That is all for now. Possibly more to come later.

P.S. - I just received my GRE Math Subject Test scores and I think I shall be just fine to get into some school above Binghamton
