I've met some conflicts as well. It's not uncommon for applicants to ask for another day to get the interviews arranged. Just email John Hopkins, provide your other available dates, and let them pick some day to give you the personalized interview. Good luck!

I'm tempted to think myself as a know-everything in front of my old foreign parents, but that is, of course, illusion. It turns out that I don't really understand what graduate school/PhD application/academia mean so thoroughly as I thought -- otherwise why would I feel anxious/uncertain/unconfident/imposter syndrome? I take the application process more like a process of learning and thinking. It can be the same case for parents. We both need to learn, including learning to deal with things that you can't really learn.

A hope-not-too-late hi to everyone! Anybody pursuing cognitive / computational neuroscience here? Also, would love to connect with peer interviewees!
