I'm not going to a couple because a) they directly conflict with another one or b ) I have a class/life obligation that I cannot miss to be there. I have heard that it's good to go to schools even if you don't think you'll go there because you could end up making a really good connection with a professor or feeling like the department's culture would be a place that you could be productive/thrive. But I understand your feeling about not wanting to waste the department's money/time, so I'd say it depends on how sure you are that you don't want to attend.

this might be a dumb question, but when POI email to set up a phone call and sign with their first name only, should you address them by their first name or Dr. X?

just found this: https://www.coloradocollege.edu/dotAsset/be00c34c-5b8c-4097-97b9-4855574b8a3b.pdf somewhat dated but has pretty good info

I haven't been able to find an overview of GRE scores, but these are the median/suggested scores I've been able to find: Berkeley: 161V; 154Q Stanford: 166V; 163Q; 5.5W Wisconsin: above 75th percentile Duke: 162V; 160Q Indiana: above 70th percentile Notre Dame; 160V; 155Q; 5.0W a surprising amount of schools don't seem to post average scores ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ah, that makes sense. Do you have any tips for someone going for the first time?

Anyone going to ASA in Montreal this upcoming August?
