[nns91]

One person received an invite from Princeton about 2 days ago! I am waiting to hear back from them as well

[ERR_Alpha]

Also waiting on Princeton. Did you all apply Biology@Princeton? I did molecular bio and structural bio, in that order.

[elanorci]

I applied via Biology@Pton too. I did QCB and molecular bio, in that order. 

 

Glad to know that many of us are still waiting. Thanks all (:

All of my schools have been quiet! This is killing me! I know MIT, Stanford and Rockefeller won't say anything until January, but the rest of my schools are supposed to start saying things this week or the next (according to previous years).

Ugh!

Even with my UTSW interview...I am gonna need 3-4 more invites before I actually feel secure about my future lol.

 

Really really really REALLY want UCSD, Berkeley, WashU, and UW!

 

Those four + UTSW were my top tier so I am stoked to even have one...but now I want more!

[DirtyLabCoat]

I just want to hear from my first reply...sighh

[BostonBio153]

Has anyone heard from Princeton yet? The results search from last year show that many of their interviews went out before xmas. There have been 2 posted on the results search, but I haven't heard anything ): Anyone else waiting and/or know anything? 

 

I got a call from them on Tuesday and got invited to the January 31st interview weekend. I would imagine that they're probably still sending out invites, since they're calling instead of emailing...

You'll be fine bro.  BTW, WHEN you get that UCSF interview...let's grab a beer.  If you're interested in the school hopefully I can give you some tips that the interview may not cover.

[acetylcholine]

I got an invitation from Baylor College of Medicine.

[Eatin' Biscuits]

I'm starting to think The Grad Cafe is the devil. If I didn't know that someone else had an interview at Hopkins and UVA I wouldn't worry so much.. but I do, so I do.

That sounds like an awesome idea. And tips not covered by the interview you say? Hmmmm

I'm super excited about my UNC interview, but one more invite before Christmas would make the holidays soo much nicer!

Congrats to everyone getting interviews - looks like I might see a few of you for the U of MN MICaB recruitment weekend.

Just curious - anyone (lurkers maybe?) applying to Cold Spring Harbor this year? Seemed popular on last year's thread but haven't seen any other applicants this year.

I am applying to CSH (with the Stony Brook add on), GSK, and Rockefeller as well.

[ERR_Alpha]

I wonder how many lurkers there are here.

I feel like we're going to be at interviews and people are going to be like "oh yeah! I know you!"

Awkward. Haha.

Alright... who just posted that they received an interview from NYU Sackler?

I got an email this morning from NYU sackler for Cell and Molecular Biology. BTW, I was not the one that posted in the results section

Congrats! I just saw that someone else posted an interview for NYU as well. Now I am going to check my email every 5 minutes for the next 2 days...

The interview dates are Jan 16 & 17. so pretty early. I've also received interviews at U of Chicago for Metabolism and Nutrition, UCLA ACCESS, UW pharmacology, and OHSU PMCB if anyone has questions about those interview dates

[DirtyLabCoat]

For those of us U.Wash applicants ... I just saw someone was rejected (sorry) for Immunology today so be on the look out (as if you weren't already)

[lasercats11]

I got an invitation from Baylor College of Medicine.

 

Congrats! What are the interview dates? Did you get contacted by an individual department? So many questions!

Well, I'm applying for the neuroscience program, so I suspect the interview time differs from program to program.  The interview is from February 12-15.

lol congrats, what was it

[Mabester]

For one I misspelled cornell once (as cornel) and left out a couple words in a sentence ... Also used "interested" instead of interesting research. Just little things here and there until I misspelled one of the persons names I am interested in haha. I accidentally sent in an unedited final instead of the edited one. I suppose it worked out though in the end, that should calm some nerves of people who notice mistakes after sending in their apps
