Graduate School Admission Results

VG/G, E/E, E/G. Didn't have enough broader impact in my personal statement (despite plenty in my proposal).

VG/G G/G VG/E

E/E, E/VG, VG/G. Two of my reviewers gave very valid/helpful feedback, but I'm pretty sure the third (E/VG) just skimmed it -- he/she repeatedly got my country of focus wrong!

VG/G, E/E, E/VG

lots of great info on the application review to improve for next year's application competition

G/G E/E E/E : First year masters, first time applying, one publication, multiple presentations, strong and well-integrated BI.

G/G, G/VG, G/VG - Reviewers liked my broader impacts, and liked my academic record, but one reviewer in particular seemed to think my proposal was a little too basic (e.g. the proposed study is correlational in nature... no attempt is made to determine causality). This was my first year applying, and I'll definitely be reapplying when I start graduate school in the fall.

E/E, VG/VG, E/E. First time applicant. Currently in second year of field research after undergrad.

E/VG, VG/VG, and F/P. I guess I caught the last reviewer in a bad mood...

E/E, G/G, E/E Reviewer two didn't understand my project -- thought I was providing syntax to be "kind" ... 2nd Year

Whoops, that last NSF GRFP for Biomedical Engineering rejection was supposed to be F15, not S15

E/E, E/VG, E/VG. First time applicant, still choosing Ph.D. Program.

First year in graduate school, no publications E/E E/E VG/E

Holy crap!

Really disappointed with this. This was my last chance.
