- Notes
- TTPB: Have 3 1st author SCI journals and 12 1st authors conference papers (1 flagship top conference in my field where people die to publish) Masters from top university (out side USA) last year. I know my field very well and had more than 60 video lectures in YouTube with millions of views. Yes I am verifiable, knowledgable, and proven researcher but it is MIT, where networking and nepotism are at its best. My recommenders gave me super strong letters but since MIT profs are crooked, do they actually value a strong recommender who they do not know? The answer is no- I think. But I have been accepted in another top school, so it does not matter. But unfortunately networking, and many Iranian and Chinese MIT POIs prefer to accept someone with degree from their own country's universities. Seriously? Racism is at its best in academia.
