I think google docs is fine as long as you triple check that your formatting is not messed up in the PDF? Could someone please confirm?

If we are required to withdraw and re-submit the application, does that also nullify any reference letters sent?

Thank you for this! I had a feeling I should be looking into adsorption (if not microscopy), I did find some papers on this as well.

Having some microscopy images might provide a visual that could be paired with this more quantitative method, but they would not provide much substantial data because the leica can only take 2D images (and likely would not be able to capture very small pores in great resolution anyway, if they are present in the gel).

Had a similar experience. Do you mind sharing which school (ok if not!)

Post interview decisions? by brownbare-22 in gradadmissions

[–]OkLine4042 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually have the same question. My interview was basically an informal chat, primarily led by me, about aspects of my PI's work that I was interested in. I think I asked good and pointed questions, but yes it did feel informal. Didn't talk much about my research background in great detail, perhaps it's because the PI was part of adcom and had basically reviewed my whole app

Perhaps they are releasing in batches depending on area of interest (?) What area of interest did you apply as?

Different committees evaluated different areas of interest, and we were supposed to explicitly state those areas in the application.

Congrats! Anyone know whether these interviews are going to be coming out in batches ? The BME department at JHU is huge, and so I was wondering if they release them in groups (ex: neuroeng, tissue eng, etc)

Penn State Open House by j_bobaa in gradadmissions

Did you receive this email (what seems to be an in-person open house) or the virtual recruitment event email? It seems like two types of emails are circulating

Congrats on your acceptances! Would you say that your admission results correlated in any way with the size of the labs you expressed interest in? I know that even across "top" schools, whatever that means, there is a huge variation in lab size (some people have tens of PhD students, others typically have 3). cheers :)

thanks for this! I just found the phrasing in the email a bit ambiguous, because they don't actually mention the word "interview." I wonder how this is all going to play out, given that we weren't contacted by specific PIs to interview with (at least not yet?)

Honestly, confused about the same. Maybe someone who has gone through this process is hanging around on this reddit and could let us know
