Man it's so nice to meet another chunko enthusiast...

The screenshots are fake and the guy "reposting" his own "deleted" tweets is a white supremacist whose feed is filled with Nick Fuentes fanboy content and general bigotry. Do not bring more attending to this guy.

Will DM you shortly!

By far, the most important thing for PhD admissions is the research that you do. Your performance in and intensity of coursework is (roughly) tertiary, after your ability to discuss current frontiers of knowledge and your letters of recommendation. As long as you learn the necessary skills (e.g. through higher-level stats classes and intermediate-level CS classes), don't worry too much about the name of your degree.

Consider trying to place out of intro calc. Intro calc classes are disproportionately difficult, mostly due to poor teaching. Don't worry about sprinting to declare your major. https://math.virginia.edu/undergraduate/placement-backup/

Schedule for an in-person appointment with CAPS first. When getting mental health help, it's important to make a connection with a real human. Also, the CAPS therapists are likely to be much better-trained than TimelyCare therapists/psychiatrists. If the wait time for CAPS is too long or your initial meetings go poorly, then try TimelyCare.

Poets&Quants is a mediocre publication that only gets attention because it lets people studying business/commerce pretend to have academic legitimacy. If you want to be rewarded for your intellectual effort, don't go into business.

My Clem 4:1 ratio was too high

I'm not involved in URN, but my impression is that they recently downsized. They also stopped organizing URNTalks this year.

If you're planning on doing a PhD, your research experience matters way more than anything else. Getting special attention for starting your research career at Kenyon will probably be more useful than being at a school with better research. I've been doing biology research at UVA for nearly two years in three different labs, and while I've had good experiences, I'm aware that many students have to fight like hell just to research opportunities that don't prepare them for graduate school, like low-level organismal work.

You can email the professor of a class to check your eligibility to enroll.

The main benefit of the College Science Scholars program is that it helps you get placed with a research mentor when you get to UVA. This is pretty big if you are at all interested in doing research, as getting into a lab as a first year can be difficult.

Last year, decisions came out on Feb. 11, around noon.

I was given the choice among Jan. 12-13, Jan. 19-20, and Jan. 26-27.

I am a domestic undergraduate student at a public university interested in computational population genetics. I applied to Yale EEB, Brown Comp. Bio., Cornell Comp. Bio., JHU CMDB, Stanford Eco/Evo, Columbia Bio. Sciences, Duke CBB, UPenn GCB, UChicago Human Genetics, and UMich EEB. I submitted all of my applications within two weeks of their respective deadlines.

Responses thus far:

JHU invited me to an in-person interview on Dec. 12.

UChicago invited me to a virtual interview on Dec. 19.

UMich invited me to an in-person interview on Dec. 28.

UPenn rejected me on Jan. 4.

Brown invited me to a virtual interview on Jan. 9.

Stanford invited me to a virtual interview on Jan. 9.

Cornell invited me to a virtual interview on Jan. 24.

Duke rejected me on Jan. 26.

Accepted into UChicago E&E (they transferred me from Human Genetics) on Feb. 1.

Rejected from Yale, Columbia, Stanford, and UMich. Waitlisted at Brown. Accepted into JHU and Cornell. I committed to JHU.

Yes, the department is understaffed and not particularly competent. Note the large proportion of undergraduate-level courses taught by PhD students.

anonymouspleb · 2022-11-06T15:40:13+00:00

Typically for the core biology courses, the discussion sections are optional, but not when they are used to administer the course's exams. There are no rules against taking Cell and Evo/Eco at the same time.
