Well, I've been creepin for long enough, so haiiiii to all the chemical biology and/or biophysics folks around here
Undergrad Institution: Tiny ass liberal arts school, no reputation in the sciences. Major(s): Chemistry/Molecular Biology Minor(s): Political Science GPA in Major: ~3.6 Overall GPA: 3.63 Position in Class: NA Type of Student: White boy GRE Scores (revised): Q: 162 V: 166 W: 5.5 B: Nope Research Experience: 2 summers and a 10 week winter break at first lab (biochemistry and genetics, 3rd/4 author on publication), 2 years at my college (molecular biology, including summer/winter breaks, 1st author poster presentation), 1 year+ as a tech currently (biochemistry and biophysics, 4th/6 author on a submitted publication). Awards/Honors/Recognitions: One REU. Special Bonus Points: uhhh... I guess my first and current PIs were with fairly well known people in their fields, and are at top 10 research universities. Also, strong to very strong LORs from all 3 PIs+ 1 chem professor who knew me very well. Any Other Info That Shows Up On Your App and Might Matter: My undergrad institute didn't offer p chem courses :-(
