veele got a reaction from Crystal128 in Fall 2012 Chemistry
mcstev13: I notice you are applying to Harvard too. I guess you are also applying to the Chemistry and chemical biology program. May I ask a quick question about Harvard SOP?
"For the Statement of Purpose, please provide a brief statement, not exceeding 300 words, of your scientific and professional interests and objectives. For Research Accomplishments, please provide a statement, not exceeding 500 words, of your research accomplishments or current projects. "
SOP and research accomplishments? Should I make these two separate parts of my essays? Thanks a lot.

veele got a reaction from contretemps in Factors to consider in choosing a school for graduate studies
Hey congrats contretemps! At least you have got options to choose from... Yeah I think it would be hard to give up Paris, but think about it, if you eventually need a PhD, then I would think you should do PhD now. You can always go to Paris for postdoc, and by that time you will have more money to enjoy Paris and travel around.
Anyway you are still waiting to hear from other schools, so you may have even better options for PhD coming up. Good luck .

veele reacted to anthropy in Waiting it out 2012... 'I've just submitted my application' thread
I submitted 6 of 8 this morning. I'll submit the last two when I get a chance to rework my statements at the weekend. Then I'm going to try to forget about all of this. No thinking about ways I could have improved my statement. No worrying about what's going to happen in spring. These things have taken over my life for so long now. I cannot wait for freedom and the head space to properly focus on my work and being a person again. Come on, weekend...
