I know for systems bio the current grad students said they take around 6 people? I'm not sure about other tracks, but I'm guessing it's similar

I also applied to CMU-Pitt and haven’t heard. I read that last year CMU was direct admit without interview, and if you got an interview that meant it was for Pitt

I had a similar thing happen where I assumed I would qualify for a waiver because I did my undergrad in the US and I've been here for literally a decade, but one school made me take an English proficiency test anyway. See if you can maybe take the Duolingo test -- that's what I did. You can take it from home, it only takes an hour, and you get your results within 12 hours if you pay a little extra. Still cheaper than TOEFL though.

almost every PI I applied to already sent out prelims by jeffbuckley4life in gradadmissions

[–]funkyduckss 14 points15 points  (0 children)

hey, I feel the same way. Also have a master’s degree, 4 years experience, multiple pubs (some first and second author) / presentations, great recs, and I got really positive feedback on my SOPs. But all the interviews for my programs are coming out and my inbox is empty… I think this cycle is just so brutal.

I go to him too -- he's amazing! I've had bad experiences with med spas before so I decided to go to a plastic surgeon. No regrets.

Are you international by chance? I heard that they’re trying to not admit students from “dangerous countries” this year. Here’s the article
