It was a reach but I got into another top 10 program so I'm good. 3.79 GPA (3.93 junior/senior years), 166Q 161V 4AWA, 59th percentile chem GRE, 1.5 years of undergraduate research in pchem/chemE at a large research university but no publications or presentations, 3 great LORs and my research advisor is famous in our field. |

At last - my official acceptance! I was interviewed 2.5 weeks ago and was getting so nervous about not hearing back. But I checked my email today and there was a message directing me to my account, where the decision letter was! Hoorah! |
