Hi!
@Flowerblitz, I would contact either Karl Dominey (karl_dominey@brown.edu) the Student Affairs Coordinator or Susan Short (susan_short@brown.edu) the Director of Graduate Studies in Sociology and let them know the website isn't working for you. Before emailing, I would try again to restore the password- that has worked for me in the past! Sometimes, the website is a bit fussy.
In terms of my profile, I have a masters in public health, teaching and research assistant experience, independent research projects as an undergraduate, 3.57 gpa undergrad, 3.78 gpa grad, low quant. GRE, but good grade in statistics course, one publication in progress. I was also in close contact with a few professors whose research directly aligned with my interests ex. transition to adulthood in Ethiopia, and reproductive health in SSA.
