Current 2nd year MS student in the BME dept at BU. A real shock tbh. 2 references from their faculty but still not enough. Good luck to others!

TTPB: Research experience and few pubs involved. No previous contact with Prof; mostly looked for a close fit in research interests. Waiting for other responses to decide. Will update when I have more clarity.

To the people who got the admit, heartiest congratulations. Please tell us more about your profile, had you contacted any professors before applying, are you going to accept this offer? I have research awards, presentations and bachelor's and master's degrees from top schools in Asia but no pubs. I am just trying to assess my situation. Thank you in advance.
