Just want to say I’m in the same boat — 3.2, but years of experience and check all the other boxes (I think). I just talked to someone at a top school who told me that as long as you applied to Several schools, it’s not over — You may only get 1 or 2 invites, but there are a few people in top programs whose letters and experience carried them.
I’m not sure what’s next if I don’t get in, but I know I love neuroscience/research and that I will keep on keepin’ on! I have a feeling those top stat people get invited first, but all we need is 1 school to take a chance on us. You never know!!
