<p>Hi, Please help me out here!
Can anyone tell me about my chances on getting accepted for Bio Med PhD programs (microbiology, molecular biology).
Well, GRE: 570V, 670Q and 3.5 AWA (I will retake it, it'll be next week...).
TOEFL: 114 (28 reading, 29 listening, 27 speaking and 30 writing)
Research experience: 2 years during college, plus three years (including the two year I was taking my master's degree - on cellular and molecular biology)
Papers: one short communication (the revised version is currently under revision) and one more (though only submited by applications deadline)
GPA: undergraduate (I'm a veterinarian) - 76.8% & masters A (3.74)
I also have a two year long residency on large animal medicine and surgery (not that I think this will help me that much...).
Please, tell me if I have any chances on being accepted in one of the following:
Northwestern
Duke
Emory
UT Austin
UT Southwestern
Baylor College of Medicine
U of Maryland - Baltimore
Princeton and Weill Cornell (dream universities).
I appreciate your help, I have no clue how my international applicant status will count against me (not to mention my GRE scores)</p>
<p>Aim lower. The programs you mentioned get incredible numbers of applications from internationals but have very little space/funding for them.</p>
<p>Thanks for your help!! I guess I’ll have to that…</p>
<p>Just of curiosity, any suggestions?</p>
