Yeah, I heard about the lightning strike. (I am still on some FNAL mailing lists, don't ask me how...)
Ha, you should probably get on that. I'm only on the Minerva listserv and it spams my email like mad.
I worked with Mayda Velasco, a professor at Northwestern, when I was at CERN as a summer student. You might not have met her, though, since she's likely to be there right now.
Yeah, she is at CERN. I talked to a few people there, and they mentioned her. I'd probably be working with the theory department; Ian Low is doing some really interesting work on Higgs phenomenology.
MIT, Caltech, and Princeton... better 990 that PGRE. 

Yeah... Although, as a girl, I can probably score lower and still be fine.
>.> Have to bloody go to Norway to take it, though.You should check out phds.org if you haven't yet. They offer very highly customizable rankings for physics programs.
Thanks for the tip.
I'll look that up. I'm still trying to finalise my list, and it's all so complicated and stressful.UMD College Park, not Stony Brook (probably just a typo, I know), and I'll be working with the CMS group there. I got offered half-time research, half-time teaching instead of full-time teaching for my first year, so I'm psyched about that.
Ha,yeah. I meant UMD. That's awesome about the half research, half teaching. They must really like you.

I think I'm going to try to get a project with the HEP-Exp group at school during term this year. They all work on ATLAS, so that'd be interesting.
So any good news out there?
