  1. I could not make the event last minute... if you went, could you please PM me your thoughts? I'm interested in psycholinguistics. Thanks so much!
  2. Wow, I just looked at the Penn chart you mentioned. Those numbers are crazy. Are those numbers typical of good programs? Or is Penn really one of the top of the top? I wonder what Stanford's data looks like, for instance.
  3. This topic is just for fun and likely doesn't have any real relevance. But hey, anything to distract us from waiting for responses from schools right? What are the programs in linguistics with the lowest acceptance rates?
  4. Thanks for your replies guys. I definitely plan to read a lot more publications over the next few weeks. Do you guys have any suggestions for general questions that can pertain to anyone's research? I like the suggestion about asking about future directions and methodology.
  5. Hi all, I had a Skype interview yesterday, and was feeling kind of bleh afterwards. The professors always know a lot more about me (as expected) so I always feel like I come off as naive after the interview. Plus it's kind of awkward because I never quite know when to start talking, or how to respond once the professor describes her own research besides, "Oh, that sounds interesting." Of course, I'd like to come up with relevant questions regarding what she just told me, but they don't always come to me right away. Any tips for how to react in this situation? It's especially hard when the professor just looks really stoic throughout the whole thing. Will Open House interviews be less awkward? Would love to hear your experiences / tips for overcoming this weakness. Thanks.
  6. I had no idea Academia.edu told you whenever someone searched for you. Ahhh....
  7. I noticed that some results were posted today. Could those people give more info or PM me your POI? Any idea of how many invites went out?
  8. So tired of waiting... I saw one invite for UCSD on the results page, but it seems really quiet here. Any updates?
