  1. I still haven't received any interview invite but received a couple rejection already... Should I give up yall?
  2. Hi, can you share some info regarding this program? I applied to Fordham as well but haven't heard anything
  3. I applied to Clark too and haven't heard anything. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think they switched to Rolling Admission this year?
  4. I relate! Haven't heard anything from any of the school that I applied to. If they're going to reject me, I would prefer if they did it quickly... I'm hoping to study children's learning mechanism in cultural contexts, with focus on language. How about you?
  5. I haven't heard anything from Michigan either. Just received a generic rejection email from UCB, which is kinda disappointed. The next few months are prob gonna be really nerve-wrecking so wishing everyone good luck!
  6. Since your verbal score is so high I think you'll be fine. UMich is the only school on my list that isn't GRE optional as well. What other schools do you have in mind?
  7. Best of luck! I think any experience at all is valuable. While I do have research experience, I am still fuzzy about what I should pick as research topic.
  8. Hi there! We are in for a tumultuous admission cycle for sure! I've heard rumors that a couple schools aren't accepting incoming PhD students for the school year 2021-2022. But fingers crossed that we come out of it victorious! I haven't taken my GRE either. I have pushed it back like 4 times since March ? honestly just wanna get it over with. As for the statement, if you want we can exchange ideas or rant just to get things moving. I have a rough draft but it's nowhere near finish. I haven't reached out to advisors either. I've heard from previous applicants that we should email them early since the summer but I feel like so many professors aren't sure what's gonna happen in the next month, let alone next year. So maybe it's a bit better to wait for things to settle down first. It's so cool that you're applying to such competitive schools! Hopefully we'll all get into our top program despite this unprecedented chaos lol
  9. Those are great advice! I really do have my work cut out for me. Thanks again!!
  10. Thank you so much for your input! Yes, I do realize that research match is very important, so I've been doing some research (stalking) for potential POI. Do you have any tips on how to contact POI?
  11. Hello y'all I haven't seen a topic for this so decided to make one. It must be frustrating getting ready to apply with COVID and everything going on, thought we all need a space to get resources, advices and technically just rant so here we go. Personally, I'm aiming to apply for a Ph.D. program in Developmental Psychology, especially those with focus on education. My school list so far includes Stanford GSE, Teachers College (Columbia), Penn State, Boston University, McGill, UConn and UPittsburgh. Anyone applying to these schools as well? I would love to exchange stats and just chat about the application process. ?
