- Notes
- I'm the guy who posted about getting rejected from Stanford etc even after having papers in PAMI. So just got a rejection from U Penn too. I think the biggest thing is to be from a big school. Unless you are a 4 pointer and have superstar recommenders (which I do) you can't make it to a top school even if you have done a lot of good research (I have offers from Irvine etc. But it's not Stanford). Big schools only look for pedigree nothing more. I can't help feeling incredibly depressed.
