Yeah, I think this is the key. I have a decent MS GPA, several publications, four and a half years of research-environment industry experience, a high GRE.

Thank you for this advice! I think it's helpful information and can be true for many things. If one area is lacking, it will definitely help to go above and beyond in other areas. Experience is helpful!

I think as long as you're keeping the relationship professional, it's okay to be friends! Like previous comments mentioned, they're still adults regardless of student status. 

[Major DON'T in the interview proccess?]

Hi!

I'm currently a senior in Undergrad, and will be applying to psychology graduate programs within the next year. I'm wondering any 'don'ts' for the interview process (in-person, online or phone call). Feel free to share any horror stories or just helpful tips. Thanks so much!
