    AnxiouslyAwaitingDecisions reacted to aurlito in Fall 2019 Cognitive Psychology Applicants   
    Hi Guys,
    So this is a summary of my application:
    International student
    Degree: Medical Degree (MD) - ( not in north america)
    medschool GPA = 3.25
    Toefl ibt = 112/120
    GRE: Q=163(83%) - V=159(83%) - W=4
    3 poster presentation in cognitive neuroscience ( I was the single only author of all)
    My MD thesis is in cognitive neuroscience under publication.
    Applied to :
    BU ( psychology BBC)
    NYU ( psychology)
    albert einstein ( biomed)
    uni of rochester (Brain and cognitive science)
    Dartmouth (PBS)
    Uni of Washington (psychology)
    my only factor for choosing schools/program was faculty research fit.
    Result:
    Rejected from all of them with no interviews.
    .....So any ideas for what was wrong with my application? What can I do next year to avoid the same tragic result?
     
    PS. I am freaking out because in 2020 I will be 29 and old af to start a phd. Also I feel a bit unlucky because in the past 5 years or so the field of Cog Neuro has become dominated by computer scientists , theoretical physicist and all that ML / deep learning stuff and that's not fair !

    Haven't heard specifically about Stony Brook (clinical, not cognitive, sorry), but I don't think they've sent out all their invites yet. I was late sending a part of my app in, and they reassured me not to stress.

    If it gives anyone some relief/hope, Rutgers (PhD) said they will send out invites by the end of the month. So no need to fret just yet.
