3 great letters of recommendation (one from an alumnus). 3 years of research, multiple poster presentations, 1 presentation at a national conference, 2 manuscripts in progress. 3.3 gpa, 150 verbal, 157 quant, 4.5 writing.

No good GRE results, but American with international B.Sc. and a lot of international research experience, 3 LoR and a very good TOEFL. Teaching experience as well as experience in different univ. committees etc.

Summer internship at Stanford

Surprisingly, I got the admission offer without having an interview with the admissions committee.

Decent TOEFL, GRE, and sGRE score. Three Strong LoRs. 5-year research experience. 4 publications and 1 manuscript (submitted) (total 5, 2 first, 2 second, and 1 coauthor).

Pretty generic reject message. Was not offered an interview. GPA was mediocre with decent GRE scores and 3 strong LORs

5 years research experience but no publications sans a pretty obscure patent that can't really be verified. Research was also in a field that's more closed related to chemical engineering than chemistry. Mediocre GPA and decent GRE scores. Doubled in chem/chem e in undergrad so that may have helped a bit with the GPA aspect.

With a stipend of $24000 per year and tuition waived. One and a half years of undergraduate research with one first-author publication.

Email from associate chair of program indicating recommendation of admission, with funding info included. Visit dates are March 6-8th

6 publications, 5 years of research experience, good SoP and LoRs. Very bad verbal GRE, but Chem and Q >82 percentile. TOEFL 92.

Has anyone heard back from the ASU chemistry program this year? If so, can you please post?

B.S. and M.S. in Engineering at University from Asia, 4 years of research experience, 2 first authored papers (one is very good journal in materials science), 1 second authored paper, several conference awards and presentations (1 oral presentation at ACS National meeting), 3 strong LORs (one is very very strong letter from my research collaborator professor at IVY), no GRE Sub, contacted with POI 2 months ago. As you guys can see my poor GRE score (especially verbal score), maybe I can say GRE score does not really matter for engineering and science majors if you have fair research experiences and publications. Good luck to everybody!
