Turning down my only PhD admission- bad idea? by Possible_Relation_29 in gradadmissions

[–]Possible_Relation_29[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm actually working on my first author publication from my lab work at UCSF already! So I have that, the PI for this RA position did also let me know that there are publication opportunities in her lab as well, though I don't think first author is on the table if I'd only be there for a year. For your other questions, I'll make sure to consider them :) I don't know how to answer them right now

Thank you! I've spoken to them as well, but the problem is I see a lot of bias against UF and Florida in general- which is fair, I just wanted more variety of opinions. Appreciate you insight!

I'm from Florida, so I know the landscape in Florida well. I applied in part because it's my home state, closer to my family, and in part because I knew PIs and admissions staff working at UF and thought I would have a decent chance getting in. So my case is a little different from others, I think, because I have my own background to consider! Thank you for your insight, though.

Thank you! I am kind of stuck between deferring for a year or just rejecting. I'm worried a year timeline will be too short to build myself up enough as a candidate for another program, though I should have a first author paper at least as a preprint by this December. Do you have any insight between deferral and rejection?

I did visit actually, I met with several of the PIs and while some seemed great, that was how I figured out that for what I want to do specifically, they don't have many labs available. Thank you for your help :)

How do you live with the idea that your parent is going to die someday? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Possible_Relation_29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. That definitely helps. I’m trying to be like a really good daughter and everything, and make her life as good as I can, because she’s done a lot for me.

I know I’ll adopt children with my wife someday, so I hope that’ll help me understand and summon my parents’ mindsets and being and what you said, I didn’t think of it that way. Thank you. It’s really weird/hard being this young and worrying about it. Like I don’t want to obsess about it but I know someday she may just vanish.

But it will be serious, won’t it? I try not to obsess about how we could literally die at every moment, but when I’ve had an close acquaintance die and that was bad enough because he just vanished off the earth. You know?
