baxter01 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Gah my schools need to get on it! Haven't heard anything yet. So much stress haha Same here. I would really like to hear something (preferably good news) before the winter break
pstar465 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Interview invite via email from Boston University PiBS! Dates: Jan 24 or Feb 10. Hmm...boyfriend's annual company getaway falls on Jan 24 and if I were to do Feb 10 I'd have to fly directly from Duke to Boston. Getting busy, I don't know how some of you applied to 10+ schools! What focus area did you choose within PiBS?
Justin123 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Hi! Has anybody heard from one of these: Wisconsin-Madison genetics, Berkeley plants, Yale MCGD? Thanks
Mabester Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Received a call from Michigan PIBS (Pharmacology) this morning, sounds like they'll be making calls through the week and sending out information at the end of the week
RatsWithHats Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Does anybody know when Wisconsin-Madison CMB recruitment weekends usually are? I'm nervous about being invited for a weekend I have already booked :/
persimmony Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 What focus area did you choose within PiBS? The 3 research interests I checked were: Development & Regenerative Biology, Stem Cells Cell Signaling & Gene Regulation Cancer Biology & Hematologic Disorders Mostly focused on stem cells though in the "why have you chosen boston university" section.
RatsWithHats Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 How many of you are already freaking out about PIs? I have lists for all my schools of course, but they aren't super strong for each and every program. I thought the real stress wouldn't be until rotations start, but just picking out profs for interviews is freaking me out!!

RatsWithHats Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Didn't some of your applications include places to select PIs? Yeah a lot of them did, but most of the invites I've received ask for a list that I would like to interview with for rotations during the recruitment weekend. It makes everything seem so real. Like, I'm already picking out rotations? (kinda)

musicalscientist Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Just got an interview offer from Yale via email! Biochemistry, Biophysics, and Structural Biology program within BBS. Interview date is Feb 13th-Feb16th.

It makes everything seem so real. Like, I'm already picking out rotations? (kinda) what program in MSU BMS are you applying to?

Which date did you choose? I wonder if choosing earlier interview dates = better chance of admittance..?

Leuco Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Anyone on here apply to Emory's MMG (Micro/Molecular Genetics) program within GDBBS? I am starting to get very nervous, with all these other divisions sending out invites, and was wondering if I had any fellow applicants.
Justin123 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Hi! Has anybody heard from one of these: Wisconsin-Madison genetics, Berkeley plants, Yale MCGD? Thanks Nobody? :-( Soooo nervous

I am starting to get very nervous, with all these other divisions sending out invites, and was wondering if I had any fellow applicants. Hi Leuco, I have a friend who is also waiting to hear from them. She doesn't have an account so I lurk and keep an out here for her. When she called Emory they said they each subfield does their admissions on their own schedule and didn't how far along micro/molgen was in its application process. They also said that they do a sort of rolling admissions process, so interviews will trickle out over the next month as they get further into the pile or they get negative feedback from the first rounds of interviewees. Hope this helps and good luck! -Llama
DirtyLabCoat Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 It seems for Microbiology applicants in Yale's BBS program invites could be sent out tomorrw based on past data

RatsWithHats Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 what program in MSU BMS are you applying to? I applied to physiology. You? Duke asked me to pick 10. I started running out towards the end.. Is your BU invite for the PiBS? Which date did you choose? I wonder if choosing earlier interview dates = better chance of admittance..? It is PiBS. I had to choose the Feb date, because I'll be in Austin on Jan 24. I'm going to be flying straight from san diego to boston on feb 9 though though. Glad I'm only taking 2 classes next semester. And I hope my lab mates won't mind taking care of my rats every weekend.
molecularneuro Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 See you there! What program at UTSW invite ?
pstar465 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 For people who got invites to BU PiBS: When did you submit your applications? I did mine early November, but they didnt add my official GRE scores to my app until very recently, so I'm not sure if my app has been reviewed yet.
antibody89 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 I applied to physiology. You? I applied to Cell and Molecular Biology..are you going to the January interview?
