nam
I know that many of us have been wondering what kinds of questions to ask grad students at programs we are interested in, and I have compiled a list of questions I am planning to ask a student in a program I have been admitted to. I have also listed a few extras here and I hope this can be a resource that helps with the blocks that we sometimes face when we are so excited, anxious and overwhelmed that we don't know where to start. :)

For programs that list their current doctoral students on their web site with their email addresses, what do you think about contacting them to ask questions about the program? Would you do it?

I'm meeting with an alum from my top choice program tomorrow and I need some help thinking of things to ask.
Of course I'm going to ask about specific courses, the internship and research requirements/opportunities, and advice for just applying, but I can't think of anything else to best use up my time with her.  Ideas?
