good day! i might like to apply to three phd applications for biology subsequent cycle however i am not sure what my possibilities are / where i must shoot for when you consider that grad faculty admissions are one-of-a-kind than undergrad.

my undergrad gpa become three.6x. my junior and senior 12 months grades were pretty excessive given that that was when I may want to take biology electives in place of the required weed out classes. i've quite a bit of research experience. i started out doing studies my freshman 12 months of university after which stayed with the same lab for my soph-senior 12 months once i found my studies pursuits (neurodegenerative illnesses, organic getting old, and so forth). i've three poster presentations (2 first author) and one preprint (1/3 writer). i have three manuscripts within the works, but now not sure while we might put up the ones. i currently work as an ra at a massive name research region.

my pi for undergrad went to mit and the pi he did his training underneath continues to be there - but again no longer sure what schools i should aim for. glad to reply every other questions, tia!
