Interview from U Kentucky today

 

[microRNA]

In what way?

I thought Duke was interested in strong research/academic GI candidates (just like Harvard or other Ivy league places), but when I looked at the current fellows, most are from in house....not a big deal anyway.

Thought Harvard programs recruit heavily from within as well.

MircroRNA -

How many programs have you applied to ?. In your judgment what percent of programs have picked their candidates ?.

 

[microRNA]

I applied to 30 programs (univ only) in NEeast, with few exceptions. After talking to other applicants at my last interview it is clear that most of the interviews will keep coming (at least 50% of them). There are interviews in april. Just wait.
