2021 Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship (HE-MSCA-PF-2021)

[horizon]

So basically one has to score >4.5, >4.7, >4.7 to get the grant. ahh.. easy peesy

I have to say I'm amazed at the lack of leakage from the NCPs, I wonder what the penalty is!!

Though, it also seems fairer this way, that way having a particular host country doesn't give you the privilege of knowing before anyone.

So as long as accepted, wait-listed and rejected candidates all get the email around the same time (or at least not ALL the accepted before ALL the rejected) then I have to say it's the best way to do it. Everyone or No one (well, except for that one the sneaky Italian host ha ha... )

Hello everyone!

I have been following the thread for a couple of weeks, not for myself but (please don't judge ) but for my wife's applicattion. I have to say that I sympathize with each and every one of you, and wish the best for all! Long story short, last couple of days I 've been checking my wife's magiclink and I would like to know if the following is part of everyones magiclink text

"mffPeriod":{"id":"XXXXXXXXX","abbreviation":"2021-2027","description":"Programming period 2021-2027"},"duration":"XX","phase":"RANKING","proposal":true,"finished":false}

Thanks in advance and best luck for everyone!

Mine looks like that …

Thanks for the reply. I thought that at least the first part of the text (up until duration) was not there a couple of days ago...

Perhaps this has been answered in a previous post, but why ""finished":false though? I panicked when I first saw it (mine is ranking and looks like that too), because it kinda sounds like I didn't finish my application well.

I'm guessing because you haven't been informed of the outcome yet, so in that sense the application is still open and not finished. It would be interesting to know if anyone who applied last year now has "finished: true".

This is what I have from last year (unsuccessful) application:

"phase":"INFORMATION","proposal":true,"finished":false

I don't really understand how these percentages were calculated.
I was expecting values in each column to sum up to 100

Can someone please post the cut off scores of 2019 and 2020

You can find them under Conditions and documents on each call page.

Here, data for 2019 call: https://ec.europa.eu/info/funding-tende ... les_en.pdf

Exactly what I have for my 2020 rejected proposal

So, two possibilities:
1) "false" means it's not accepted
2) "false" means it hasn't been accepted and stays that way when it is not accepted

This is making me feel a bit demotivated

I have now been following this forum for three years (through my three attempts) and just wanted to say thank you to all for all the funny memes and encouragement in the dark rejection times. Finally, I seem to have got it. It was just leaked to me (through host from NCP) that I received a widening grant. So, it's starting.

Good luck to all!!!
