<p>I'd like some opinions if anyone is willing to offer them up... I know it's not completely useful without GREs, but I'd like to know if I'm stretching too far with my choices or not from what I know now? What kind of score should I be looking for on the general test of the GRE (I'm taking it fairly soon, and I'd be willing to retest once)?</p>
<p>GPR: 3.4, 3.9 major
Major: Biochemistry and Genetics & Texas A&M
Minor: Chemistry
GRE: subject and reg TBD (expecting to do well in both, I'm strong at test taking)
Research: 3 years of experience in three different labs
Publications: none at the moment, but I should have at least 3 submitted before the deadline as first author/co-author (obviously the lab I'm in now is very productive... my advisor is going for his tenure!) these would all be in the field of neuroscience, even know I know the plans are to submit two of them to the journal of biochemistry
LOR: I've been promised four GLOWING letters - one from my current research advisor (who basically thinks I'm amazing and who I am very good friends with now), a past research advisor (who loved me a lot, but didn't have the room for anyone permanent in their lab), two of my professors have offered to write me letters if I ever need them whom I have very good relationships with</p>
<p>Schools I'm looking at:
UCSF Tetrad
UWashington Biochemistry and Neurobiology
UChicago
Harvard DMS or neurobiology
UTSW
UNC Chapel Hill
Yale
Wisconsin</p>
