ChemBioApplicant

Seems like the three of us have had a very similar experience, were either of you at the Friday zoom call? Maybe we met?

Ah, I think if you didn't get the second invite your odds are slim.

Are you asking about caltech or scripps?

For an invite to the visitation weekend, not an admit or reject.

got an update, mid week next week is the earliest anyone could expect to hear back

caltech chem bio update, got a secondary interview contact for tonight or monday, sure hope they arent calling us up to let us know we didnt get in over the phone.

On the verge of contacting shannon over here, as it certainly is no longer early in the week. Will share if I do and learn anything.

you and I seem to keep coming back to this, it's comforting to know someone else is feeling the same way.

I am once again asking, anyone have any updates on caltech chem bio or scripps 2nd round interviews? Been seeing inorganic and organic folks post an acceptance here and there.

You all interviewed earlier in the week last week yes?

You wouldn't happen to know or have an idea of how many they might take? (Highly speculative ofc)

55 interviewed, hope that's what you were looking for!

We had something like 55 applicants between our two days whereas, from what I've gathered from these forums, other disciplines/divisions had ~35 so, im not surprised they're taking longer, just wishing we could know sooner. Caltech and Scripps really just have me sitting here refreshing alllllll dayyyy.

Anyone know if Berkeley is doing anymore admits? I saw the wave a little while ago but am wondering if that was it for them? Seems unlikely

Yep, wednesday and thursday here, certainly makes for a stressful week this week. Really hoping that I'll hear back from one of them and finally be able to relax a bit.
