Notes
Someone posted a professor's reply in a forum. Sounds pretty unfair for applicants with a MS degree!! "Sorry to bear bad news, but you have not been admitted. Our admission system has a preference for students who do not already have an MS, which worked against you to an extent. In addition, this year we have been restricted to fewer students than in past years by the University administration. Although your case was under consideration up to the last stage of decision making, the competition proved very intense. I hope you have other good choices to fall back upon.XXX mentioned you were talking to XXX at MIT; I hope that works out."
