  1. I probably applied to too many top tier-ish schools (since I was more focused on fit/cities where my fiancee was also applying): Berkeley, Maryland, Vandy, WUSTL, Boston, and UNC...
  2. Sooooo what are the chances having not heard back from anywhere at this point? I had phone interviews with Maryland in December (one PI even told me mine was supposedly the most impressive application he'd seen), but nothing since. This is my first time applying so I feel like I must be doing something wrong. I applied to 6 programs (I'm restricted based on the fact that I have a fiancee applying clinical), but I thought I would at least hear back from one or two. Is there something wrong with my specs? GPA: 3.7, Q: 163, V: 168, 2.5 years and counting as research analyst in neuroimaging research (have worked on many different projects and helped several different PIs), two pubs (one first), 2 manuscripts in prep, 3 or so presentations, won a Psi chi research award in undergrad, developed a toolbox for neuroimaging analysis. The only thing I can think is that my PI has been less than helpful in the process (definitely not detrimental though). Any consolation would be wonderful... :<
