  1. I'd love to hear some thoughts on Wisconsin, Northwestern, and UPenn, if anyone has any!
  2. I've heard UPenn is making moves. Thoughts?
  3. Gotcha. Thanks. On another note, just got accepted at Illinois! I am super excited and very surprised to have heard back so early.
  4. Ugh, this is annoying. It says that my My UW account has already been activated (maybe I activated it a while ago and forgot), but I don't recall my username or password. What a pain.
  5. I didn't get this email. Is that a bad sign, or just an oversight?
  6. Thank you all for the helpful advice and encouragement! I've added a few more upper-end schools to my list, and made the donations you requested (except for the coachrjc's, I get the feeling that wouldn't be tax deductible).
  7. This sort of thread seems to crop up a lot around here, so in an effort to make this slightly more worthwhile, I will donate a small sum to a charity* (of your choosing) for each response I receive. I am planning to apply for the Fall 2012 cycle. My intended subfield is American, and I am primarily interested in political psychology and political communication. I'm also potentially interested in comparative as a third field. I am currently planning to apply to SUNY Stony Brook, Northwestern, Minnesota, Ohio State, Wisconsin-Madison, Berkeley (reach), and Stanford (dream). I would love to hear your thoughts on my chances at any of these schools (and I'm also wondering if there are others I should be considering, given my general interests). My profile: Undergrad: Top-tier liberal arts college Major: Double major in Political Science and English GPA: 3.86 overall, 3.98 major. I've only had one A- in political science, and that was my first semester freshmen year. GRE: 770 V, 720 Q Quant background: two calculus courses, one stats/methods course Research Experience: two summers as a research assistant for a political science professor Publications: co-authored a national survey + study that was self-published by my school's political science research center. The study was subsequently mentioned in USA Today and The New York Times, among other venues. Other: 2011-12 Fulbright English Teaching Assistant in SE Asia Phi Beta Kappa Pi Sigma Alpha selected as best political science student in my graduating class selected as best English major in my graduating class graduated top 5% honors thesis, award for best thesis Your insights are appreciated! *Some restrictions apply. Limit one donation per user. I reserve the right to refuse to donate to particular groups (e.g. hate groups, extremist organizations, etc.). I'd also like to keep this politically neutral, as well, so no candidates, parties, or PACs. Finally, unhelpful or one-word responses will not garner donations.
