To the person asking about UCLA health program, were you at the interview last weekend? I got not so great but still hopeful news that I was put on a waitlist for the health program so hopefully someone decides to go somewhere else:) oh and for any one still wondering about UCI they are having interviews this Monday so if you haven't heard from them yet it's probably a rejection.

I just got three more interviews: Miami, StonyBrook, U of Pittsburgh. I honestly was not expecting to get so many interviews... but nowadays, that doesn't really mean that much.. I mean its still good, but I could be interviewing with 10 other people for the one spot, we'll see I guess:)

Thanks! And no it is for their health psych program. I believe the only areas that interview are health and clinical. My GPA, GRE were not impressive at all. Let's just say I didn't even score a 1300 on the GRE. I do have quite a bit of research experience in several labs and I also work with a professor who recently recieved her PhD from UCLA so Im sure her letter helped a lot. My research interests are pretty concrete as well so I was able to go in depth in my personal statement on what I plan to do while at grad school. I emailed several professors before submitting my application and it was one of those professors who invited me for an interview; I think the match between you and the professor overrides everything else.

I usually don't post on these sites, but I was kind of pleasantly surprised by an email I received this morning. I got an interview for UCLA!!! Feb 13 to be exact
