  1. Hey there, I was looking at one of the threads you started, and am wondering where you ended up applying/headed to? 

  2. I am a junior at a top 20 private university. My GPA is not the highest right now, though I plan on increasing it significantly. I was wondering if some of my choices for a Ph.D in analytical chemistry were out of reach. Major: Chemistry Cumulative GPA: probably around a 3.3 by the time I apply Chemistry GPA: probably around a 3.3 by the time I apply GRE Verbal: 155 (67%) retaking soon GRE Quantitative: 164 (88%) retaking soon GRE Analytical: 4.5 (80%) retaking soon GRE Chemistry: expecting at least 800 or so Recommendations: (1) super strong rec from one of the top analytical chemists/professors in the country (Agilent Thought Leader Award, etc.), my PI; (2) strong adviser/head of undergraduate research rec; (3) very strong rec from industry; (4) optional: strong rec from head of graduate TA's, only undergraduate TA Experience: 1.5 years in industry from taking time off (drug discovery/development); 1.5 years in top analytical chemistry/IM-MS research (possible publications, lead author for MSWIFT advancement); 2.5 years undergraduate general chemistry TA; campus ACS Student Affiliates Chapter officer Other unrelated EC's: Delta Delta Delta Top Schools: Purdue, UCLA - dream school, UT Austin, Cornell, UofI Urbana-Champaign, Cal Other schools I'm considering: UCSD, UCSF, UW-Seattle, Scripps Do you guys think that my GPA will be that much of an issue applying to these schools for the Fall of 2016? What are my chances?
