Earth Systems Science, Stanford University Had lots of overlap with research interests of the PI of interest, never interviewed, other candidates were invited to an open house but I was told my research group was operating on a different schedule.

Political Economics, Stanford University I tought I was a great fit I am sure I had amazing Letters of recomendation, but I havent submitted my Mastet Thesis yet so that could have played against me. Another thing that might have hurted me might be that I took the GRE four times and the first three times I scored 155, 152 and 159 in quant (with 163, 165 and 167 verbal respectively) and I uploaded the pdf with all the tests. I scored 110 in Toefl IBT But my biggest hope is that I got rejected because I also applied to the Political Science PhD at Stanford and I made it clear to the PoliSci Department that they were my number one choice. Hopefully I am accepted in PoliSci and since some of the faculty has affiliation at both departments I am going to get my number one choice and that only. I have published and presented in a Peer review journal, and international conference, one national conference, I have long been a research and teaching assitant, free lance math tutor and I was a paid intern at the most important public policy lab. I also have a national academic award. I have an extensive background in mathematics, but I was kicked out of two my country's top 3 best economics master programs so that might have been a red flag. Master GPA 86/100 but in some courses 8=A, 9=A+ and 10=A++ I am certain I had amazing letters of recomendation because two of my recomenders alreadeay got me into 3 very selevtive masters and I got an 10=A++ with the other and was top of his class. Feedback is welcome. The rejection letter told me they received over 750 applications this year and last year the entire GSB PhD accepted 26 people so I guess acceptance rate most around 3%. Congratulations to those who got in!!

Computer Science, Stanford University GRE not submitted. I feel I'm rejected by all of the top 4 schools (UCB, MIT, Stanford, CMU) where currently only S is official, but the other's silence showed their rejection. Applying for systems & networks. Did two research projects, one at my school one at a company. 1 pub on a workshop. Got admission from other schools, so I feel it's not that bad. Anyway, my application season is likely to come to its end now. The remaining thing is to collect rejection letters from these schools, including the top 4, Harvard, Princeton, UIUC.
