Once you send your scores, it will take about 10-15 days to reach the schools you're applying to :)
A discouraged worker is someone who has given up looking for work and has left the labor market. The United States government does not treat discouraged workers as unemployed people because they are not actively looking for work. This creates some counterintuitive results when calculating the unemployment rate.
By that definition I am not a discouraged worker because I am actively looking for work, and there is no shortage of jobs for which I am qualified. However, I have long been underemployed, and my experiences in the job market have lead me to an alternative explanation for worker discouragement.
