Hahahaha, I feel like thats just throwing out a lot of key words, what specific thing are you into that ties them all together? Know what I mean?

That is awesome you two made it to the list of 22 and that they give you feedback, that's really nice of them. Hopefully it helps you with other stuff. I discussed my research interests above but could say more if you're interested hahahaha. what are yours? If your research interests aren't matched up to their program I am not too surprised, they're such a competitive school. Do you guys have any advice for interviews? Do we just have to be able to discuss our research interests, why they're a good fit, and our past experiences or??

Thanks @kekology4 To add to earlier discussions, I'm coming from a BA in Gender, Women, and Sexuality studies and a lot of my research has been about sexuality assault, consent, and rape culture on university campuses in the US. However, I am actually applying to Emory's MD/PhD program looking to get my PhD in WGSS, and focus on developing a fundamentally feminist understanding of the science on which medicine is based, as well as its practice. With a focus on trauma, and how to constantly and simultaniously understand it as operating on the physiological, physical, psychological, social, and cultural levels, and how that could inform our practice of medicine, then figure it out by practicing it. Hahaha, I joked about hoping Trump will at the least mean they'll see how.much people.with education in feminist studies are needed. I don't have high hopes though. America is finally showing its true colors, so that's nice. Clearly a lot of people are struggling to realize this is what the reality is and has been for a while now, and some people have responded by externalizing that anger towards others rather than thinking about how they're implicated in what is happening in the US and how they should take a moment to think about why they're surprised, was their understanding of how.bad the situation truly was in America really so far off that this is surprising? If so, what does that say. Anyways, those are my thoughts. I hope you guys hear back good news soon!!! I wish you all the best of luck! Follow up question, how.many of you folks have cats??

Just got invited for an interview at Emory

I'm applying to Emory's program too! They have such amazing faculty for what I want to do. Elizabeth Wilson <3 <3 <3 I visited Rutgers' program, and I personally really really liked it. I'd be curious what was meant by the whole "factions" thing.
