2018 Marie Curie Individual Fellowship (H2020-MSCA-IF-2018)

[SwiftInd]

Hello! Well, even if you have not (so far) got it, it is a great accomplishment and maybe you can have access to the widening fellowship, I guess.

Can I ask you your panel? SOC, LIF... and your score if you have it?

I am new here. Indeed, results are everywhere except poor applicants.

Ah lord. I am on a reserve list. GF.

Got info mail from the officer of Romanian Ministry who deals with eu projects.

GF-Lif. There is no info about the score. And am i close to the border line. Does everyone knows what about reserve list? When I will know am I in or out?

[danGFSOC]

Take my words as they are (experience of someone that tried in the past and tries to guess how things go): normally for the GF is very unlikely to get it from the reserve list. Normally in GF reserve list is very small. Last year 34 projects were in reserve list for the 8 panels (so on average 4 per panel, maybe more for LIF, ENV and SOC and less for MAT). But it is more difficult in GF that someone leaves the fellowship because there are much less fellowships compared to the ST. However, one never knows!!! But I guess you can have access to some funding from the widening fellowship, trying again next year (when funding will be further increased).

There seems to be a lot of "if I don't get this fellowship I am leaving academia" stuff about. I understand that, and I am in the same boat. Actually even if I do get the fellowship I may refuse it and leave academia very soon. I've no desire to be a lecturer as I don't enjoy teaching, and there seems to be few full time research positions in the social sciences. Its unfortunate.

Well. I were you I would resubmit it with a very light revision. Not so much work and statistically more chance to get it.

I can't wait to see comments, i was sure that project will pass . How they calculate the score? i guess something in excellence went wrong.

If you are in the waiting list your score must be good!

Try again next year.
