No GRE Mediocre GPA Good SOP (tricky to say how good my SOP is but friends of mine who finished their Ph.D. in the same field did proofread) 1 Research during undergrad

Generic rejection email, wasn't expecting much but even so. Decent LORs, 6 months of internship work-ex, 3 research papers and 1 patent publication. Just too competitive I guess.

Indian CS Undergrad from a private university. GPA : 9.43/10 - 3.83 is what I got when evaluating it on scholero. 3 papers in pretty good venues (one each of workshop, conference & journal) as a first author or joint first author. 6-month research internship and about 6 months of fulltime work-ex. I tried to reach out to see what the issue was, because I was under the assumption that all decisions would be out on the 14th of Jan, but I received a fairly generic response stating that they don't provide that information to applicants. Best of luck to everyone still waiting to hear back!

From one of the old IIT's, GPA was a bit on the lower side. Had good LOR's. 2.5 years of work ex as a software engineer.
