Notes
Was interviewed in mid-Jan. Was assured a position by the faculty of interview (SOP POI). 1 top journal Master Thesis publication. One of the top universities in the world for undergraduate. 4 preprints. All papers first author. All three top class recommendations. One from a very big shot in the field, fully personalized. I cannot work in academia anymore now. Too much I have seen in last 4 months. It's all on luck. The graduate students I have contacted in these top places were far less qualified than me. It is more politics than actual politics.
