Applied to UMCP, JHU, Columbia, UCSD, UCI, Rutgers and WUSTL but have not heard anything except for UMCP Got into a problem with the chair at UMCP so he kind of rejected me outright even though I was recommended for admission Do you guys think I should consider bad news at the other places as well given the fact that I have not heard anything from those places yet? V: 152, Q: 170, W: 3.5, 2 papers, 2 posters in stats and bigdata conferences.
