Yeah . . . well, at least you didn't study for the LSATs before deciding that you don't want to become a lawyer. I studied my ass off for the GREs too and you know what? Instead of getting in the 50th percentile for math, I got into the 52nd percentile. I'm headed back to school this fall too and I am shocked that I got funding. What I am even more shocked about is that I asked for more funding just to see what would happen and they said that they couldn't give me more than the maximum (someone awarded me the maximum amount of funding?!). If you apply to programs that really want someone with your experiences and skills already and you clearly communicate how you will be an asset to their program, they just might believe you. Especially if you have good letters of rec.
