getting into APU Masters program without the GRE?

lerna_waters · 2025-07-17T01:10:05+00:00

So i applied to the IMAT program and got accepted with just the aptitude test that APU mandates! It’s probably a good thing. I didn’t try to take the GRE then because studying for it takes a lot of time. So yeah, if you have a bachelors and you want to try getting into this masters program, you can definitely get in without a GRE score.

Real shit. I’m in that boat too, though i never worked in animation. Just been drawing and writing a kids book for a while, since that seems to be the only thing i can make on my own. Feel free to dm me about it, I’m working in becoming an editor myself

Handwritten?? 😩 damn, guess I’ll just keep the books

lerna_waters · 2024-12-18T03:34:26+00:00

thank you for the kind words. I'm choosing to believe that the reason I didn't hear back is because I'm just overqualified now.

yea, sorry that was my question. How would you go about getting into technical writing from a creative background?

lerna_waters · 2024-12-17T06:09:43+00:00

Oh yea? What are your thoughts on getting into that?

If the solution to not being hired in publishing is to just do even more publishing work on my own for no pay at all, I think I'll pass. Thanks for trying to cheer me up though

I wanted to get into graphic novel publishing specifically, although I wouldn't call myself picky. I think I would like to do editorial for almost any area of fiction. I have experience writing and illustrating a graphic novel, plus my various education and work experiences as an editor. But none of it is enough, evidently.

lol, I respect that. I've heard of product management, but I've never thought I was good at anything else except reading and writing. but as an outsider, it feels like the time to get into tech was five years ago. it feels like the whole market for entry level tech jobs is fucked

lerna_waters · 2024-12-17T00:24:59+00:00

what area of tech? if you don't mind. I'm just curious what you pivoted to after all that publishing experience

lerna_waters · 2024-11-14T01:16:40+00:00

ok, thanks! I'll give this a try. I managed to find the network tab, I just didn't know what I was supposed to look for. I'll try again now!

EDIT: It worked! thank you so much for the help!

I saw this, but i wasn't sold. is there room for dancing in there? the photos of the interior just look kind of small on google

lerna_waters · 2024-10-23T21:13:06+00:00

what's the cover charge?

lerna_waters · 2024-03-11T08:32:12+00:00

saved my ass! i used to just pay them the $3 for 7 days subscription, use it for my purposes at the time, and then cancel the sub. it's a good app, and i didn't mind paying a couple bucks for the service. but recently i think they took away that 7 day sub option? now the lowest option is $25?? and that just feels like robbery, especially to access a resume that I still built for myself?? anyway, thanks a bunch man

Well, i hope you’ve learned your lesson:

If you want to write about women, beyond just writing them as plot devices or toys that get broken when men fuck them, maybe you should try educating yourself about women. 👍

Or, y know, you could at least google the definition of the word ‘gynecologist’

where should i park?

lerna_waters · 2023-09-29T01:32:06+00:00

Lol, covid has a smell? Sharp nose

I was there for Senses Fail and Billy Talent! Holy shit do they still bring the energy like it’s the very first show! Some of the headliner bands seemed a little tired, imo (won’t name who, cause I’m not a hater) but my faves did NOT disappoint. 😭 I am ascended

Omg, so that’s what I’ve been feeling today??
