I applied to grad school a while ago and I’m still waiting on the response.....
(I was inspired to do this while stuffing envelopes in a temp job absolutely loathing the business environment)

I’m applying to the College of Science at this university hoping to study Molecular biology in a convoluted and time consuming path to eventually get a PHD.....at least that’s the plan....who knows if I can handle the courses and the socializing and networking required in the sciences :mad: ......


The plan is....first get a Master's in Molecular Biology (2-3 years).....and then apply to a program to pursue a PHD in Biosciences or possibly Neuroscience (5-6 years) (my planned topic of study could probably be pursued with either PHD)....


So yeah wish me luck.....if I don’t get accepted that would mean I would have to take some Non-Degree undergraduate studies to increase my most recent GPA so I can reapply further increasing the time this is all going to take....:eek:

*crosses fingers*
Ill find out if Im accepted in prolly 2-3 months....

In this time I am saving all the money I can and selling belongings to generate the money to avoid a loan as long as possible.....

Anyone want to buy a:
Goldstar 3DO system with a Lightgun and one controller and 27 games(most of the good ones)?

A Nintendo 64 with three controllers and 8 games?

a working Atari with 40 some games and 8 controllers?

Dwarf Cajun Crayfish?
