Guys, you have given invaluable information and insight. This makes me really want to do it!
How writing intensive were the courses, in particular, the graduate courses? I know there is a ton of reading in grad school, and a few of my friends in grad school seem to talk of nothing else but their next writing assignment. Are they precis, short reports, or longer papers? Writing a thesis is not problem for me, since I did that to finish my undergrad work. I just want to know what is expected so I am not shocked when I first come in.
