an evolving understanding

As I plug along - attempting to navigate this process of PhD. apps I am coming to understand that this is going to be a function of persistence rather than intelligence. The MAT score needed is a 50 that is right around the 70th percentile. Not to lofty - but the number that stuck out to me in my research is 1 in 2. 1:2 PhD candidates who are All But Thesis never finish. Scary!
So my problems really start once I'm in a program. Well - wish me luck because getting in may be the easiest part!
