Hey everyone!

In an effort to bring you the best of the best in terms of SPS meetings, we would like to gauge the interest in holding another Physics GRE info session. We held the same meeting last year in early February so people were able to take advantage of our information considering the April GRE. If we see that our members would rather not have this meeting, the information and notes from last year's meeting are up on our website (as always!).

The interest form can be found here:

Hey everyone. This poll is to gauge the interest in an SPS meeting on the Physics GRE. We held the same meeting last spring and it was a great success. Just indicate below if you would be interested.
