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/E E/E,E/VG. 2nd grad bioeng stud, 7 ys of research (took 2 ys off after undergrad), 2 - co-auth. 2 - 1st auth in prep/submitted, plus 3 more pubs, bunch of presentations nationally, TAing for a semester, tutoring, novel idea (reviewers loved it). Last y also HM (E/P, E/G, E/G). Worked so hard to improve my BI. All reviewers recommended me. So disappointing. I don't know what went wrong or how you win it?!? Hope this helps to somebody.
