I have applied to a dozen schools and have been turned down for interviews at all (pending 1 still reviewing). I am going to be honest and just give you my basic credentials. I want to know if I am justified in feeling that I have had particularly bad luck or should not have even bothered to apply? Additionally, some schools have told me they may offer me an interview at a later time, after they review their "top" candidates. Is this legit or am I being politely rejected? Brutal honesty please.
Here are my "stats":
I had an undergrad GPA of 3.52 and a psych GPA of 3.6. My GRE General was a combined 1130 (I realize a little low) with an analytic score of 5.5. I have 3 years of research experience with a nationally known professor, with 7 poster presentations and first authorship of a publication in a prominent APA journal. My rec's were from 2 professors and the project director of the study I work for.
