Theoretical chemistry PhD. Got an invite for an interview on Dec 16th, actual interview a few days later, and then the PI that interviewed me (was also a faculty that I want to work with) sent me an email informing me of acceptance on Dec 27th. Today (8 days later) I received a status update email and saw my official acceptance on the portal. Such an honor and surprise to be accepted, I thought I wouldn't get in anywhere! No publications and no GRE scores, and a low B.A. GPA that I tried to make up for by pursuing an M.S. right now. Submitted 4 LoR that I believe were good. Good luck everyone, I'm rooting for you!!
