  1. Both UMDs have sent out interviews. Brown GPP has also sent out interviews.
  2. I would throw this on biorxiv if it doesn't take time away from your applications. If it does, throw it on biorxiv after you apply. Why not put the info out there and put it on your CV
  3. You sound like a strong applicant! Honestly, we have similar applications but your stats are a bit better : ). Also, I love your positivity and I hope to see you at an interview weekend. As for putting safety schools, maybe only put them on there if you might want to attend them. Otherwise, in the very unlikely chance you don't get in anywhere, you could apply again with more experience next year.
  4. I think you can write a possible title / author list on your CV for your unfinished paper. just label it (In preparation)
  5. Hey HawaiiLee! Thanks for your feedback, though I think it'll be fine because that's the GPA I have either way. I'm working on reaching out to PIs that I'm really excited about. I'm also excited about my rec letters, as they are from PIs that know me well. It's good to see that someone else with a lower GPA got into such a great grad program. We'll see what happens with my apps!
  6. Hey! I'm pretending it's not a big deal because people tell me it's fine. I went to a small, competitive college and I took a lot of hard classes. I'm thinking of writing a lil paragraph about the reason my gpa is low in my app. I've also been out of school for more than 3 years, so I think it reflects on me less. Also, maybe my GRE will counter it? I think your application sounds solid!
  7. Hi! I've been lurking so I thought I'd share my stats/interests GPA: 3.0 Research Experience: 2 years in a systems mouse lab 1 publication in a small journal GRE: 161V 166Q 4.0W Probably Applying to: UMD, Johns Hopkins, Brown, Northwestern, Emory/Georgia Tech, Georgetown Thinking about: NYU, Yale, George Washington, U of Rochester, UPenn, Rutgers Interests: Systems level/circuit connectivity, connectomics, computation Grappling with: getting a 3rd rec letter from a PI I kinda know, or a postdoc I directly work with (2 other letters are PIs) Wishing everyone good luck!
