Hello all,
My application is nearing completion, so I'm making some last minute considerations. Is it good practice to include future research in the activities section of an application? I will be working on a senior thesis next year in a biochemistry lab with a PI who's already agreed to take me on - in other words, yes, I'm certain I'll be doing this research. I have no intentions of writing a ton about it, I'd just like to mention projects I'm considering. My primary purpose for including this information is that it might encourage interview questions, thereby giving me a chance to speak about something I really enjoy (like my other activities, which are few in number but rich in personal meaning). For what it's worth, many of the schools to which I'm applying are research-oriented schools. Thanks for your time!
