You don't have to hate all other races to be a racist, it's enough to be prejudiced against one race or a few races.
You're not coming across very well here, Andrew. I would certainly not want to work with somebody who has your opinions or your approach. Your post to Fled listing facts about him/her that you have gleaned from posts on other threads was out of order and frankly a bit weird and stalkery. That sort of behaviour is not acceptable in academia or indeed on online forums.
Hi, I've just completed the survey. This is such an important area of research, I hope you get plenty of responses! Considering the sensitive and potentially upsetting nature of the topic I was wondering if it would be an idea to say in this thread what the survey is about?
Good luck with the research!
What makes an application successful and how many people apply will vary widely between disciplines, universities and supervisors. I don't think there are any hard and fast rules! Contacting potential supervisors with ideas might work.
I applied (successfully) for a fully funded PhD project when I was 40, with a masters (and first degree) in a different discipline (completed 15 years previously). They seemed to think I had what they wanted - hasn't stopped me from suffering from impostor syndrome for the whole of my PhD!
Good luck, I hope you find something soon. :)
