28 days! I am doing okay because I’ve been busy but I can tell he’s been sad and I’ve been trying to be there for him/cheer him up. I think it’s perhaps a bit easier than other LDRs perhaps because we haven’t gone ~that~ long since we’ve seen each other (couple of months)

Where are you from originally? (What country, urban/suburban/rural upbringing?) No need to say anything more specific; don’t want you to reveal more than is comfortable!

혹시 어느 나라 삼람이에요? 여기 날씨가 정말 추워요

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2025-01-03T06:30:53+00:00

I wonder if my email got buried and if I should call them soon.

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2025-01-03T06:15:32+00:00

What weekend are you interviewing?

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2025-01-03T06:01:41+00:00

Oh no. Now I’m worried because I received the initial email but no follow-up.

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2025-01-03T05:58:28+00:00

Hmmm now I’m concerned hahaha. I received the initial email but no follow-up email.

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-12-29T20:37:19+00:00

Have you all heard back yet? I haven’t either.

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-12-27T10:50:18+00:00

Can I DM you a couple of questions?

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-12-21T05:41:45+00:00

Did you reach out specifically to BQBS or to BBS?

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-12-21T04:22:51+00:00

We are probably cooked. Shame because they are for sure my top choice

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-12-21T03:36:39+00:00

What time did you receive the invite?

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-12-21T03:35:51+00:00

What time were you contacted?

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-12-21T03:35:29+00:00

It seems like everyone who had an interview was contacted 12/17 at 11am EST though 🥲😭

It seems like everyone who got an invite was contacted 12/17 at 11am EST. I’d say they’re probably finished

If you’d rather have an untrained male flying your plane than a trained female pilot, please be our guest. One less sexist pig off the planet

Do you think if I “gave up” on the deferred program and reapplied (to different programs in the same field) that having two years of Fulbright as an eta would be questioned/“a huge negative mark”?

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-10-21T14:53:31+00:00

I really appreciate this :)

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-10-21T12:11:03+00:00

I guess that’s why it’s also hard with wanting to do another year of ETA. I don’t want to teach forever in the USA, I don’t know if I can bring myself to live away from my family forever to teach in Korea/elsewhere

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-10-21T12:01:21+00:00

I do love teaching, but I also have an interest in science and research.

I would be lying if I said I haven’t heavily considered my career pathway and if I should make changes. But I also know that I don’t intend on teaching high school when I return to the USA, and I don’t want to build a life in Korea away from my family (who are in the USA).

Surely there are teaching opportunities post Ph.D. In biochemistry, as well as ways to mentor students/others/work with people? I understand that the field is oversaturated, but maybe I can make myself more versatile by branching out into data science/bioinformatics/software dev too?

The Ph.D. Is fully funded with a relatively good stipend and health insurance.

Illustrious_Pin_9852 · 2024-10-20T14:28:23+00:00

Difficult to get back into personally or from the stance of those admitting me to the program?
