    Waiting to hear back post interview is driving me nuts!!!   The fact that everyone in my lab keeps asking me if I've gotten accepted doesn't help either.
    In other news, my step-mom apparently told all her friends and family I'm going to be a medical doctor.......
    Just rambling in hopes of keeping my fingers from pressing refresh on my email......

    I think the general advice is to choose a program that has the best research that you would be happy doing in an area you could see yourself living in for the next 5-7 years. Factors to consider in order of importance I feel are your interest in the research, compatibility with faculty, research funding (which generally correlates with prestige to some degree), location, and stipend.

    Don't be worried about this! I was worried that one of my top choices didn't pair me with faculty I wanted to work with but then I interviewed and got accepted regardless!

    I wouldn't flat out say "top choice."  Just thank them for the invite, but you unfortunately must decline the interview.  They'll read between the lines, but it's less awkward than telling them about your acceptance to your "top choice."
