  1. Well thank you lewin! I will certainly try my best.
  2. Hi everyone, I am currently in a very delicate situation and would really appreciate some advice from you guys. I am a senior in one of the top Canadian universities, doing a double major in psychology and statistics. Up to now my GPA is 3.77, with a 3.72 in statistics and a 3.82 in psychology. I took the GRE this August, ended up with a 164 Verbal, 170 Quant, and 4.5 AW. Although I do have a solid background in stats, there is one thing drawing me back in my application- I've got really limited research experience. I did a one year research project with a professor back when I was a sophomore and am currently taking a lab course that requires writing a research paper in the end, but that is about all I've got research-wise. This is bugging me, since I know grad schools are looking for students who have demonstrated strong research skills. I am really starting to regret prioritizing my junior year in taking more stats courses over focusing on research. But there is no going back, and although I might be joining a professor's lab this semester, I seriously doubt if this is going to remedy the situation in any way, as it's already too late. I have a strong interest in cognitive neuroscience, and would like to conduct research that involves neuroimaging in the future as this draws from my stats background as well. My question is, do I still have a chance of getting into some decent cognitive neuroscience programs, even with my limited research experience? Is my statistics background going to compensate for this want of research experience in any way? Just want to get some advice, I know I shouldn't keep my hopes high...Thank you all in advance.
