Holy shiitake mushrooms… I just read the “alumni” thread… and everyone’s already got these insanely awesome research opportunities/projects going for them… I just have good test scores (80 verbal, 77 math, 80 writing on PSAT, 800 verbal, 770 math, 710 writing on SAT, 800 Math IIC, 750 Chem) and a passion for learning new things (Anything about biology fascinates me, especially molecular biology/genetics)… does that basically kick me out of the running?
Also, on the application, when it asks for “Field and subfield,” do you basically just pick whatever interests you? It’s not like there’s a list of “fields and subfields” somewhere that I missed, right?
Thanks!
