Hi all,
So I'm sure this is a somewhat redundant (or common) post, but I'm applying to microbiology PhD programs this fall and am having some difficulties determining if my application will be competitive enough. Here are my stats:
BS in microbiology at UC Davis, GPA 3.5
MS at San Francisco State, GPA 4.0
GRE: 630q/660v/4.5AW
I had about a year of research experience as an undergrad and a year and a half as a masters student. I ran a microbiology department in an environmental lab for about 2 years. I know my GRE scores are low and I'm trying to raise them. Any thoughts or advice? I would appreciate any and all advice or comments.
Thanks
