Notes
Let me be very clear, entire process was disappointing and painful. The Uni made us wait for more than 4 months, to give rejections. The admits given are such shit profiles that their linkdin posts of their "journey and struggle to reach Columbia" are cringeworthy. And I'am pretty sure most admits are wondering how on earth did I get an admit lol. Anyways learned my lesson that merit is not the commodity valued for admissions. At least in Columbia lol. Oh also this is not the post of a bitter reject, but a reject who realized that merit and academic accolades do not matter. CGPA-9.3/6 months research experience in Computation, 3 publications, 1 conference, IELTS 8.0, GRE-322, 1 year work experience. Diploma in DS.
