Thanks for the advice, guys. I got 1200 on the GREs in college, but when I retook them last year I got 1080...flubbed on the Quant. So I want tor retake them and aim for a 1300. Especially since my GPA is not good.. Although my psych gpa wasn't too awful - 3.4, my overall is 3.07 (my bio minor brought it down).
Basically, I applied to 4-5 places last year, and didn't get an interview. They were all decent matches with my research, and I emailed most of them beforehand -- very brief email, 2-3 lines about how I'm interested and this is my research.
All my rejection letters were from the graduate committee. I have a feeling they didn't even make it to the faculty members.
This is my second time applying, and my last chance, so I want to do everything I can without annoying the POIs.
Thanks for any advice.

But that's what everyone on this forum does, right?
Can you email the DCTs of these programs and ask how you could improve your app for the next round?
