- Notes
- This does not seem to be going well for me. I interviewed 2 weeks ago. 3rd overall rejection with a waitlist at another. :( 2 more interviews scheduled though... "What distinguishes students is their ability to talk about their research and show passion for science. You didn't give the impression that that you were passionate about getting a PhD. Because of that impression, people were not excited about you. We only accepted half the students who interviewed with you and those who were not accepted had similar weaknesses."
