<p>Congratulations EmilyLars! I just wanted to say that I found your previous post very humorous, although your first dream must have been troubling at the time…throughout this whole application process my brother has been joking with me about how I am going to go to the local community college for graduate school 
Also UCLA rocks and is one of my favorite campuses ever :)</p>
<p>@ transform</p>
<p>Thanks transform! Maybe I’d better call and find out next week… Are you attending U Chicago anyway? :)</p>
<p>I’m jealous of all the people who have decided where they are going… I’m having a hard time. Any advice to those of us trying to narrow it down to one school? Anyone else here trying to factor in bf/gf in the decision?
Congrats to everyone that is hearing back!! It is really exciting!</p>
<p>BTW, what do you guys think of UW Madison’s IPiB (integrated program of biochemistry)? I don’t have much info, and I have a hard time making decision over U Michigan’s PIBS…
any help?</p>
<p>@ Caulobacter:</p>
<p>Yes. My fiance is wait-listed for med school at my top choice and my second choice (where I have gotten in). She was accepted to my third choice program. She has a chance at the other two, but won’t know until late May, so we have to make a decision for me without all of the information. Arg!</p>
<p>@ Sleepyhead:</p>
<p>My professor told me those two programs are very similar in terms of research opportunity, so I would say go where you thought you would best like to live.</p>
<p>Caulobacter,</p>
<p>I finished making my decision and also had to consider a girlfriend in the picture. Though my selection was pretty clear cut. What sort of questions are you addressing? Are you waiting for your bf/gf to hear? Have you gotten into programs you want to go to? Details…!! haha PM me if you want.</p>
<p>Oncogene, Congrats! Have fun up in Boston.</p>
<p>Thanks TwylaBloo! Looking back the dream was pretty funny but at 4:45am it was terrifying</p>
<p>@sleepyhead </p>
<p>I know a couple people that are very happy at UMich PIBS, and Ann Arbor is a really great place to live!</p>
<p>@Pilsung
Sorry to hear about all that, I hope you hear something back from those med schools before April 15, but med schools are so slow to reply. Frustrating!
@GCN2
Haha, I included detail in the PM. For everyone else who may be interested, I am basically trying to decide if I want to go to school in the same city as my bf… or not. Not fun.</p>
<p>You love Sinai?? I got into Sinai and UCLA…I am having such a hard time deciding which school to attend. Any advice??</p>
<p>Hello everybody</p>
<p>I have narrowed my choice between UCSF BMS and Yale.
I’m leaning very much towards UCSF. I know New Haven has pretty much nothing. But program wise…can anyone offer any thoughts about the two schools?
Thanks alot.
Congrats to everyone who has got acceptances.</p>
<p>Has anyone heard back from UCSD BMS???</p>
<p>Hi Prettywitty!</p>
<p>I’m trying to decide between Rockefeller, Sinai, and Albert Einstein</p>
<p>I’m kindof leaning towards Sinai though…it just seemed like a great fit…what are you interested in?</p>
<p>@miRNAman:</p>
<p>I heard back from UCSD BMS the Monday after I interviewed via email. I decided not to go there and have already told them, so hopefully that helps you out.</p>
<p>Has anyone heard from U Chicago Biomedical Sciences? I just want to make a final decision…</p>
<p>AHHH! can’t decide between yale and rockefeller. I liked both even though they’re different in so many ways… I think maybe the more rigid structure/teaching opportunities at yale would be better for me, but am I stupid to turn down rockefeller?</p>
<p>I don’t think it’d be stupid to turn down Rockefeller - many don’t even apply to Rockefeller precisely because it is more of a research institute than a graduate school. I think it’d be a fantastic place to do a postdoc though.</p>
<p>UCLA or Emory? I have been accepted to the neuroscience program at both. I want to study Alzheimer’s disease, not sure how cellular or maybe through imaging, this is still tbd. Any input on either school would be helpful.</p>
<p>I’m interested in neurosience particularly dealing in neurodegenerative diseases, plasticity and repair. I loved Sinai. In your opinion how does Sinai and Rockefeller compare? I’m trying to decide btwn Sinai and UCLA…ahh decisions…decisions…</p>
<p>What did you think of UCLA Prettywitty?</p>
