If the person who posted their interview for UNC is on here, who was your POI?

Same, tbh. The view was from last week.

When someone from Northwestern looks at your Researchgate profile. Mass hysteria.

Holding it together! Every morning is like, "I wonder if today's the day!" and inevitably it is not. Tis the season!

Congrats! How are you handling potentially starting a PhD program along with having the offer? Does the lab know that it's contingent on you not getting accepted to a program?

I know! If I didn't have this outlet to talk about it I would go insane since no one else seems to (outwardly) care.

The struggle is real

Congrats on the Skype interview! I also applied to work with Perry. You and I have very similar interests and many similar schools as well!

*takes a sip of my glass of wine*

Hahah I found the best way to summon the clinical folk. The anxiety and neuroticism is definitely real with me but I'm just good at ignoring it. edit: and booking plenty of therapy sessions over the next couple of months!

At this point I think we're holding ourselves together a little better than the other areas.. don't tell them I said that.

Got an email from a POI that I reached out to at a post-bacc program (as a backup.. I haven't applied yet) that said, "you are building a strong CV, which is wonderful, but I’m not sure the extent to which you perceive yourself to be a strong fit with our faculty". Ugh. Like I reached out BECAUSE I was interested..

Same here. Merp

If I don't get into any programs I'll join your farm.

Did they require an official transcript PDF/does it still show as unreceived in the app portal? If so I'd definitely email.

Omg I had bad dreams for about two or three nights in a row after submitting my apps.

It wouldn't hurt! Lots of application systems have a place to upload final grades.

I purposefully put them in a folder not to look at

Matsick, Vescio, and Cook

Maybe we'll all get to meet at Penn State

Where are you applying? Feel free to PM.

Clinical usually has so many more applicants too! I've heard from talking to social faculty that a lot of them meet in committees or all of department reviews applications, but obviously that varies. Maybe we're just getting more thorough consideration The only schools that show under review are Texas and UMN and that was like right after I submitted, so I'm in the same boat.

They might have a shortlist of people they want to interview in person but want to narrow it down before spending $$$ on having you travel there. Plus what @brainwrangler said. After an entire day of interviewing, your brain is scrambled. Good luck!! edit.. no brain pun intended

Nice! I'll be presenting if IRB ever goes through for my study...

Right now I can't receive calls on my cell nor does my voicemail work so I am scrambling to get that remedied. At least they all know I have an email address!
