So cool! I wish you the best- I don't know a lot of people doing BPD research, but it seems like you'd be a good fit :) 

Thanks! Good luck to you, too!?

I saw on the result page that some one got interview invitation from Wisconsin-Madison several days ago. Does anyone who got it could share the interview date? And will they send out more soon?

I'm also curious about this. It looks like they usually send out all their invites within the same couple days, so I'm a little worried...

Just sharing some info I just got from a friend: Yale INP normally sends interviews in Jan. but this year they are meeting early and trying to get them out before Christmas! 

Confirm, committee is meeting on the 22nd. Not sure when the actual invites will go out though.

Emory is starting to send invites- saw it on the results page. What's with everyone receiving phone calls? My phone doesn't always have service since I'm often on the subway and/or in the lab. Yikes...

Sorry to hear that :( Me too. Someone posted on the results board that they had 4 years of experience and 5 first author publications. Really makes you wonder... The program must have a really high bar for undergraduate GPA or something. I would love to be a fly on the wall when these decisions are being made.

Yeah...I am little disappointed but not too surprised since they said they recruited approximately one international applicant every year.

When I read here that there are people applying with such credentials, I lose all confidence in applying ? I barely have one co-authored publication... and I am like the 4th

I got a publication literally right after I submitted my apps -_-

Same here, but I noted in my CV that it was under review. I do not really understand how people having 5 first-author publications (provided they are in normal journals) come not to have a PhD degree already?

Seeing people get interview invites to programs I applied to when my inbox is dry makes me feel like crap lol 

I share the same sentiment.

Agreed. My CV is comparable with the posts on the bulletin, so toss me into that mix. I was also in touch with multiple faculty who were enthusiastic about my application, so I'm a bit perplexed.

Looks like Harvard just sent out invites. Not sure if they are all sent out at once in a mass email but I didn't get any :(. I guess I can assume I got rejected? I spoke to multiple faculty that were very impressed with my background and wanted me onboard though. One even scheduled a call to discuss what PhD projects he wanted me to do. :(

I’m starting to think that maybe applying to 8 reach schools was a bad idea ???. My gpa is ~3.5, I did two years of research in undergrad, and I’ve been a lab manager for two years at an R1. I have one poster presentation, one middle-author publication, strong LORs, and a decent SOP (I believe), so I’m thinking my gpa might be holding me back. I haven’t heard back at all yet, though and it’s driving me nuts!

All the people that got interviews are Americans. Anyone know if Harvard put international students in a separate pile?
