do you guys know if its due 2/13 11;59 or 2/14 11:59pm?
I think 2/14 at 11:59pm
Yeah same thing happened to me, I submitted mine 5 days ago and havenāt received an emailā¦I think they will send out confirmation emails after 2/14
do you think they will even consider people who have low standardized test scores
from reading posts from previous years, it does seem that they focus on your essays a lot
not sure, I received my application last week and transcript / test scores this past Monday; received an email today saying they received all 3
gl to ALL OF YOU
im kinda getting anxiety rn because i think my essay does not set me apart from other applicants but I actually tried rlly hard:(
iām applying! good luck everyone - iām writing my essays rn ugh ;___;
for those of you who submitted, about how long were your essays? did they go right up to the word limit or were they a little bit shorter?
same dude same i was writing it rn. Mine is right up to the word limit and some of them are shorter. for intern ppl:How did you guys demonstrate your interest in your essay when you have to list the 3 labs that ur interested working with?
I have some research experience, so I chose professors who were studying things similar to me; I just talked about my research and how it related to theirs
all of mine hit the word limit
I have zero research experience
i might not get in cuz i feel like they want ppl with research experience
ok i just submitted - mine are basically all up to the word limit except for the 3 labs one (i think its abt 200 words or so).
ah depressedtomato i feel the same way tbh bc i have a little bit of research experience from last summer but itās not really relevant to the field that iām applying for so iām not sure if itās actually that useful but i guess we all have to start somewhere right?? i think that as long as you show a genuine interest in research youāll be a good candidate
i talked a lot about what my specific research interests were in the first personal statement essay (explain why you selected your subject of interest and what you want to study), so i kinda just referred back to that essay when i was writing the 3 labs essay and stated how each labās research related back to my specific interest
idk if this makes any sense at all sorry :((
Thanks so much marshmalloes it actually helped a lot! I donāt really have that much research experience, butI went to a public health in the summer and another internship in my sophomore year. Due to my lack of research experience, I also have to BS about my experience taking Sports Medicine classes and my connection with neuroscience cuz we talked about concussion and stuff. Iām still too scared to submit my essay because other ppl they all have the experience and Iām the only one who donāt have any. But it doesnāt hurt to give try:))) If i get in i will be a goood kiid and be SUPER THANKFUL.
BTW did you get the email that asks you upload the supplement material right after you submitted your online app?
yes, you can upload your supplemental docs as soon as you submit
OK thx dude ^
yay iām glad it was helpful!! i rlly hope things work out
and yes, i got the email right after i submitted. which subject(s) did u guys apply for? i did 1) neuroscience 2) psych (i donāt really have much experience in either, but iām interested in studying themā¦ hopefully my sad essay-writing skills will come thru???)
can I apply for three different labs in one field of study? I want to do anatomy and neuroscience so i chose three labs from the faculty list. Does it have to be different department???
I donāt have any research experience eitherā¦
What r your stats
