  1. Hi, I funded by my department yet the Student Center states that I'm due the full tuition amount. Anyone else dealing with this ? How do you solve this ? Also - anyone know what the Student Activites Fee of 38$ is about. When is it due? Is it a mandatory fee ? It seems that my tuition waiver does not include this. Should I pay it ?
  2. go to india it's cheaper than living in the US and it's travel, which is always fun !
  3. I agree with the above poster. you're a douche. and seriously, it's the lecturer you should be complaining about not the student. If you had a real life job and your boss took a nasty customer's side instead of your, you wouldn't have been oh-my-godding about the customer, but how awful your boss treats you. why the difference ?
  4. I'm considering both these programs and would like to get your opinon on why one would be better than the other. Advice is a wonderful thing, mostly when you're on the giving side...
  5. I'm planning to attend both days. Anyone else ?
  6. I'm flying out to see a school I've been accepted to. Would appreciate question ideas to profs/current students Thx
  7. Most Useful : not getting a PhD Least useful : 5 years in school with the goal of being in a position of accpeting future prospective students to 5 years in school with the goal of... Seriously, haven't you had enough of useful/useless debate with your parents what you decided to go to school in the first place ?
  8. Our visiting/interview day ends at a dinner party in a Professor's house. Should i get the hosting prof. anything ? usually, if i go to diner, i will always bring something. this situation if of course a bit different. What do you think ?
  9. The only reply I got was from Yale, telling me i'm on the short list and giving me an assigment to see if i have what it takes. Still waiting to hear from Duke and U of Chicago
  10. a. Don't you think that alcohol is pushing it ? I don't know how old the guy is, and if he ever drinks. Also, alcohol tends to be pretty expensive... b. I come from Israel. Wouldn't a CD / book of alocal band/author come out as interesting ? what do the amreicans in this forum think ?
  11. I was thinking a CD or something. Anyone has any ideas ?
  12. Dear Schools, Haven't heard from you in a long time. Is it something I said(or wrote in my SOP)? Me
  13. Hi, I've been rejected from U of Michigan, which threw me off a bit, but after looking at the results page and seeing how many rejections they've sent I'm feeling a bit better. I've had an interview in Harvard and have one set for U of Orgeon. I'm really anxious about the other 7(!) schools I've applied to - especially Cornell, U of Colorado at Boulder and Princeton. anyone heard from them ? two questions : 1. Does any school accept applicants without interviewing first ? 2. Walking away from an interview - how do you know to judge your performance ?
  14. I would recommend to all you Kerouac readers to check out The Dharma Bums. It's On the Road with a zinc of Zen.
  15. I heard that at interview weekends they pour gasoline over applicants and light them up. Those that burn and die are accepted to the school.
  16. You just did it again.
  17. Social Psychology - Decision Making i feel like there's so much more to learn in the field and that i might bring my 2 cents worth of insight
  18. Congrats on the interview. What school is it ?

  20. The best time to take the GRE is never. The 2nd best time is yesterday.
  21. 7 Social psychology (with/without personality), 3 marketing programs (targeted in consumer psychology).
  22. Dude, I'm with you. I'm stressed, but not the anxious-oh-my-god-what-does-it-say-about-me-if-i-dno't-get-in-to-harvard-like-i-have-dreamt-of-since-i-was-five-years-old you see a lot around the forums. It's just another life thing, I suppose.
  23. let me just say this - international students pay for TOEFL as well.
  24. Do you think they will really count each and every word ? If so - trim. If not - leave it.
  25. I sent both my GRE and TOEFL additional scores weeks ago and they haven't been received in some of my schools. How long did it take your scores to arrive ?
