Do you mean the percent of admission offers extended that are actually accepted (sometimes called the yield rate)? The program I'm holding for has a historical yield rate of 40-50%

It's just that the wait is even more annoying when you see people from your program get decisions (which may or may not be real) on the results page.

Same experience. I didn't bother with a masters though. Still getting some good interviews with a less than 3.0 GPA but good research experience. Don't give up hope.

I know right. I've been replaying the interview in my mind trying to analyze every tiny detail. It's pathetic.

Could take until mid March for all my decisions to come in. I don't even have a date to work with, just a 1 and a half month window. Bummer.

I didn't bring anything like that to my interviews and it wasn't expected of me. Probably not necessary unless they strictly state it in the interview invite. If a professor hasn't checked out your material before the interview, handing him your transcript or cv isn't a great way to use the 30 minutes you're going to have to convince him you're a good potential grad student. But that's just my view.

Anyone apply to umich neuro (direct or through pibs) have any info on when decisions will come out after that last interview?

The school that accepts you is obviously the best school!

I think most R1 schools will have a historical average yield rate around 50% (the amount of extended admission offers accepted). So if you interview with a cohort of 20 and you later find out they have 10 real spots, then you would all stand a good chance of getting an admission offer. Those offers might not all go out at once if they don't want to overshoot the number of open spots they have, and in that case they will make use of a waitlist while they see if their top 10 choices accept or not.

ask the grad students

anyone have info on how small umich plans on making this incoming pibs class? i heard they're shrinking it a little so post-interview admit rates might be lower and take longer to trickle out...
