Excellent thread for prospective graduate students

Tips— Preparing for Graduate School Interviews (thread 🧵)

1. Research the Program
Learn the details about the program that is interviewing you. This includes research opportunities, faculty, students, research cores, exchange programs, financial support, culture, etc.

It’s the night before a major deadline for students applying to graduate programs. Friends, I hope you keep central those things and people that are valuable to you. Don’t let this process and its outcomes redefine you. You are valued and valuable - you have what it takes and the program that deserves you, will have that benefit. Chins up, I’m proud of all you have done to get to this point! #DiversifyThePhD

Has your graduate program phased out this type of assessment to accompany letters of recommendation? If you have, do you miss the data?
If you have not, do you trust the data?

[Daniel Whiteson @DanielWhiteson]

I will keep maxing out these nonsense categories until grad programs phase them out.
