    First, it’s still early to know the results of this year, so even you see other schools accepting other people, don’t be discouraged. I’m in the same boat and it really upsets when the number of schools I’m still waiting for is down to a number fewer than the number of fingers in one hand. Second, think what can happen in the worst case. You don’t have any schools acceptance this year, but at least you got tons of experience of applying for graduate schools, which can be used for a better application strategy in the next year(s). A friend of mine in college didn’t get accepted in the first year of applying. The person worked as an RA and one year applied again and got accepted to a top school in the field. For me, getting out there to the application is already a small win for me. I hope I’ll still get accepted to some schools this year or I’ll rethink and show up for schools again next year. Probably there is something schools want and I don’t have now, so that year I’ll get to work on it. This is cliche but being accepted is the beginning of the story. Getting in and out with a review or publication is another much bigger thing. And then tenure, and so on. I’m pretty sure other members have more stories to share here as well.

    @hngu178: XanthusARES is true. You got a very good chance of being trained well to do research and placed in a good program. Congratz!

    Thanks for sharing the information. I had interview with them but haven’t heard from them for a while. How many interviews did you have with Texas A&M? And by the way, did they send you an offer?

    Same boat here, and I just want to shout out to ask for advice from previous applicants/current Ph.D. students about this issue...

    Congratulations on the acceptance! Your acceptance is very early in the application result time. Can you share your experience about your interview with the school? Did you have a feeling that they will accept you right after the interview?

    This is so helpful. Which language did you use to make this graph? Any sharing about how you learned to do this?
