Notes
It is disappointing to get a reject from Stanford this year. I would really like to know what is the admission criteria. All my recos were really strong along with 5 publications in known conferences. My MS advisor from top canadian univ had mentioned me to be in the top 1%. Does submitting the application last day make a difference. How much importance is undergrad GPA. That was perhaps a weak point in my application. But, after doing a MS with good GPA, who should care about undergrad GPA. though, i should admit that i did bad in a couple of courses. i dint know that course grades matter so much than projects.. I would like to know what ppl think about the selection criteria in their opinion. Michigan here I come.
