Hi SDN,
I'm in a situation where I want to apply this next Summer and I have most of my stats up to snuff, but I've never been good at getting to know my professors super well, even the PI that is in charge of the lab I work at, I even took Biochem from her and we still don't know each other very well. I am on track to publish in her lab but she just isn't very involved in our particular research group of undergrads and a graduate student. It's not like I don't know how to talk to professors, it just feels wierd when I'm literally trying to spend time with professors to get them to like me/think I'm smart or something, it feels disingenuous. Any tips?
