I hate to tell you this, but if I were you I'd rather know. Emory Cancer Bio only has one interview weekend and that was January 26-28. I would assume you're application was rejected. But if it makes you feel any better, I was interviewed and I have not been accepted yet, and I know others have.

That was quick! We probably met last week!

I'm wondering the same thing. I'm assuming it's a rejection since I met people who have already had their interviews, but I know as of last week they were still sending invites. So I'm gonna hold on to some hope for a little longer, no matter how unlikely it is that I'll get an interview lol.

I can't speak from experience, but I'm pretty sure that if the only school I get accepted to is my safety school, I'm just going to work. I think I would be pretty miserable spending five to six years there. I'd work for a year, improve my application materials, and reapply next year.

Dang. I submitted mine in November because I got the dates mixed up. If they're going alphabetically I still have a chance (last name starts with W), but if they go in order of date submitted I think I got rejected. That sucks because it was my top choice

Honestly, personal questions probably scare me even more lol. I never know how to answer them.

Okay, Thanks! I just read something somewhere that said the interviewers ask about your research and then talk about their research and expect you to ask questions. Maybe that's just what happens at that school. I want to be prepared though lol. I already have some questions about the specific programs. I just want to be as prepared as possible since I get really nervous. Also, does anyone know if it's acceptable to bring in a notebook with questions into an interview?

The first one is at University of Florida, IDP Biomedical Sciences- Cancer Biology. The second is Emory University, BMD- Cancer Biology. I literally have one day between interview weekends. I'm going to be exhausted!

Does anyone have any interview tips? I have my first interview weekend next weekend (and my second the next weekend) and I'm kinda freaking out. My main concern is I won't be able to ask good questions about the interviewers' research. So is there any way to prepare for that or are there any tricks anyone has?
