Applying to Phd Neuroscience Programs

[PhdWannaBeMe]

Hi there, I am wondering if it is worth doing a "chance me" here. I have 15 programs on my list and at this time I am just planning on applying to all since I have no basis of knowing if I would be a good candidate.

Advice or feedback appreciated....
