To the Anthro applicant: I have my campus visit on Friday and I'm majorly tripping. Happy to hear that you really enjoyed it; it's helping with my jitters. Wish me luck! -AMG

did interview over Skype w DGS & like 5 others, it went pretty well, 18 minutes, generic questions like "why this school...research interests...something ive read recently that caught my attention...have u worked in archives...any questions?" I should be contacted w/in 10 days bc they have to talk to other subfield professors bc there is an overall limited number of spots..Wish me luck! good luck everyone!!

To the person inquiring about the plant pathology interview submission. I acted broadly interested in a few POIs. I didn’t hone in on one. 3.7 GPA. Low GREs. 151 quant/ 157 verbal/ 4.0 writing. 2.5 years of relevant research experience. 2 more years of pharmaceutical research experience. Excellent LORs. I’m not sure if it was specifically me you wanted stats from, but I’d figured I didn’t put them in my interview post.
