- Notes
- TBBP: I obtained my undergraduate degree from a top5 public university (GPA 3.93) in US and my master degree from a top1 university in a Asia country. Undergraduate: high-energy experiment, one conference (APS annual meeting) and one talk. Master: 1 publication in optics (IF: 4.69, first author, featured as cover) , 1 manuscript in preparation. The interview was quite "informal" (no slides), and the professor asked about my research experiences (basically why I shifted so much and why interested in AMO) and why I wanted to go Columbia. Then she introduced her research projects and asked me which one interested me most. She said that the offer will be sent no later than early March and she believed that it may be done in Feb. (In fact this interview is quite urgent that I received the email on 02/20 to schedule an interview and the time was determined to be on 02/21 evening, quite surprising for me)
