Hello fellow EEB-ers! I'm in the process of setting up my applications for EEB PhD programs, and am feeling overwhelmed as I research potential PIs. How many programs is everyone looking to apply to, and how many professors at each school are you reaching out to? Is it bad protocol to reach out to more than a few at one school? After scouring the internet, I'm under the impression that this whole thing is almost like matchmaking, so is there potential for hurt feelings or bad manners?? I'm feeling a little lost at this point and would love to hear where everyone else is on this!
