I'm like 95% sure you can't accept both.

damn.

One of my reviewers couldn't decide if I was a guy or a girl: "Also, she just has one presentation. Finally, the applicant could improve her research statement by demonstrating his leadership activities." (I'm a dude)

Here's to hoping for NDSEG

Didn't get it, G/G G/VG VG/VG. Very encouraging feedback though. I feel pretty good about my chances next year.

This is really the lastest they've released since at least before 2007? WHY.

When i hit "refresh" about 30 seconds ago I got a "page not found" error and got all excited thinking that meant something. nope.

back down below 600

surely it cant be much longer now

I'm gonna go eat a bowl of cereal. When I get back the result's better be up.

I loled

my laptop says 1:00 central now. Come on fastlane, come on.

My research proposal also really sucked. Completely unrealistic, at least with where my field is right now. It'd be a good project maybe 5-10 years from now. Also I didn't get into the school I proposed, and it was pretty tied to my project, so.

I thought it was two years of graduate study?

This is a really stupid question, late to the thread i guess, but where am I supposed to see the decision? It should be obvious once I log in, right? Where it says "final status?"

Thanks, you rock.

i wish... it seems my 1st, 2nd, 3rd usernames were already taken on fastlane. Really should have written this down. Anyone know where I can find it?

so... i seem to have forgotten my username somehow. racking my brain. this should be fun.

Also an undergrad. I figure I have very little chance. While back in August I felt like I submitted a strong application, I recently looked over my essays and boy are there ten million things I would have done differently. It's amazing the difference a school year makes.

Here's the scenario, boiled down: School A: I have one school that has a potential dream situation going on: Fantastic program, I'd be working with a big name in the field, well-funded, whose interests intersect precisely with mine, and all of the grad students there love him as a mentor (he has a fairly small lab) The problem is, this school does rotations, and I'm not guaranteed a spot in his lab. I may be the only one doing a rotation with him, or I may be one of three or so people competing for a spot, who knows. He has stated that he generally looks for 1-2 students to add per year. The other professors in the department certainly catch my interest, and I think I could be happy in such a scenario, but the research doesn't quite fit and I'd be potentially looking at a very different career path. School B: This school has a young assistant professor who's really pushing for me to come there, and him and I got along really well. Funding lined up, frequent correspondence with the PI, happy grad students, the research is great fit but not a perfect one. Do I risk it, have faith in my own abilities, and shoot for the dream situation at school A or play it safe with school B?
