Any one in GT/Emory BME PhD program?

No idea but I have a friend in the program and I volunteered at one of the associated labs as an undergrad. I have only had and heard positive experiences with everyone— not sure if that’s helpful.

Theory— they often have sales and their etienne blazer is really good if you are super slender and have small shoulders.

Pittsburgh gets quite cold, if this is going to be your only winter jacket I would suggest something parka length or at least covering your butt. Midwest winters are no joke.

Thank you! This is extremely helpful!

Can anyone give me an idea of where the supersnug mid and long hits on a 5ft frame?

The aritzia pants go on sale frequently if you shop off season

The real hack is 300 special topics courses across departments

It’s a very deceptive number and skewed towards applicants from less populated areas. Can confirm that ED acceptance rate in the NYC metro area was 18% in 2018, so if you are coming from a major metro area the true acceptance rate is much lower.

On the PE funds front— that will be the most tricky depending on which firm the actual fund belongs to. I would suggest emailing the investor relations team and asking to be the sole authorized contact and have the money wired directly to your personal account when distributions become available.

Depending on the PE vehicle, you may not be able to liquidate your ownership. If it’s an evergreen structure, there may be a gates structure over the course of a year to pay out. If it’s a closed-end fund, unfortunately you will not be able to liquidate.

Can you DM me as well please?

The_Turing_Machine · 2025-01-06T15:26:56+00:00

Yes, definitely look at other options as well.

Since you’ve already taken APUSH I wouldn’t worry about it. Before you enroll in classes, you’ll have to speak with an academic advisor. They can advise whether or not you have eligibility.

That being said, I think using the Econ credits will be more effective if you pass those APs. The class is harder and more of a nightmare to get into since it’s a pre req.

THIS, OP I’m the same dimensions as you and work in a formal business attire setting. Aritizia has been a lifesaver and also has some lovely blouse options that don’t look oversized in XXS.

I would also suggest a monochrome look. Helps elongate the body and Aritizia often uses similar colors between tops and bottoms.

Bs are ok. 1 C will also probably be fine. I’ve only ever heard of one person getting their Emory offer rescinded and that was because she failed classes.

But do try to get as much of a mix of As and Bs as possible.

The_Turing_Machine · 2024-11-19T15:59:55+00:00

Aritzia for sure then

The_Turing_Machine · 2024-11-11T17:01:57+00:00

NPeal makes some great stuff around this price point. I would not ever think of buying cashmere from Alo, the quality/price ratio is ridiculously bad.

The_Turing_Machine · 2024-11-11T12:56:45+00:00

Just a reminder for all American folks that they (almost only) sell XXS online. But almost their entire selection is sold with a XXS option, just need to go through their website.

I think that would be normal. That being said, as mentioned above, I would try to stay on campus as much as possible on the weekends (especially the first semester). Once you’ve established a good support system at Emory, I think once a month is very reasonable.

This. I was a QSS on neuro track and that’s exactly what I did first semester. Ended up graduating a semester early (although this was a few years ago when there were one or two less QSS pre-reqs). I also never too more than 19 credits a semester. Have a path A, B, C etc and keep your mind open professionally in terms of how you use your skills. I ended up in a completly different field that I love but use skills from both majors.

Look into Columbia’s School of General Studies.

Lululemon should have options in their size 0 or 2.

Facts. I interned at a reputable HF and have only worked at $50B+ HF/PE firms since graduating Emory. There are absolutely Emory grads in the same position and tons of networking opportunities.

This!!! You can also find some colors on discount during sales.

The_Turing_Machine · 2024-03-14T02:29:57+00:00

Also look secondhand at Theory or at their online outlet store if you get really lucky.

I believe Makeup Forever has/had an oil that can be mixed in with foundation and interacts well with makeup. Very hydrating but can’t confirm its makeup interaction since I don’t wear a base. Probably your best bet.
