<p>Hello,
I am a student from the netherlands and want to apply to grad school in the US in the field of cell biology/ cancer biology. I have some preferred schools (UT health, Baylor college of medicine), but I would also like to know some programs I could apply to to play it safe.
I have had 16 months of research experience during my masters degree one prospective second author publication, GRE Q160, V160 writing 4.0. my GPA I wouldn't be sure about due to differences in re-calculating it to American standards (anywhere from 3.3 to 4.0). and I may have a cum laude certificate to go with my masters degree.
I find many awesome programs to apply to, but it seems that they are all about as selective (or like to play it of as such).
I know there is no guarantee to get in anywhere. What do you guys apply to as the safer options?</p>
