So if this is really a "keep the family up on our lives" sort of thing, I'm going to brag. To bring everyone up to speed, I'm applying for a Master's of Science in Medical Physics from GA Tech. They have a distance learning program, so I'll be able to start in the fall, but one of the prerequisites is the GRE. The GRE is similar to the SAT, except it is for graduate school. (

Record
Exam) Because of the sheer volume of students taking the test here in India, all slots were booked until September, which resulted in a trip for me to Bangkok last week to take it there. While I don't yet know how I fared on the writing sample, I was given my verbal and quantitative scores immediately. And they are:
Verbal
710
Quantitative
750
Now, I didn't quite hit my goal on the quantitative (I had freakishly high expectations), but I far surpassed what I expected of myself on the verbal. The average for GA Tech is 529 verbal and 760 quantitative. Now all I need do is finish up my application and find money for tuition.
Imagine, one of us may be employed full time in three little years!
