  2. I have been in contact since the summer with a faculty member in a cognitive neuroscience program. She was very pleased with my CV and experience and we then later had a skype interview before I had even submitted my application. The skype interview went amazing and she said she wanted me in her program and to submit my application ASAP so she could send me out to look at the campus. I have had 3 years of great research experience (multipe publications and poster presentations). We have been keeping in contact because she wanted to check over my application. I emailed her before the holidays and she said, "They are going over applicants right now. Let's try to talk tomorrow or Wednesday for a few minutes. I will have (asst) set up a time." I am so nervous this is going to be bad news. She was aware of my gre scores during our skype interview (not the exact score but I told her I scored average). And she stated she dislikes the GRE and thinks it isn't a good reflection on a student. What is your advice/ what do you think she wants to discuss? We will be talking tomorrow. GRE score 151/150 and 3.6 GPA
