I went for some double IPA's. Surprised I made it into the lab by 7 today Yes, Maybe a bold heading with "Community Outreach" would be an excellent Idea if you have some. This was my last year to apply though so good luck in future years! Thought I wrote a winner this year and at least one reviewer agreed! I think my 3.5 undergrad and graduate GPA left a bad taste in two of the reviewers' mouths

Congrats to those who received! Physical/materials chemistry E/E, VG/G, G/G , nothing Some serious disagreements from the reviewers obviously and one's comments make it obvious that he/she did not read my personal statement thoroughly (said I did no outreach when I had a paragraph detailing my outreach to teaching a STEM program to elementary school children as a volunteer for over a year). A little disappointing but we all know that the review process is unfortunately quite open to bias. Just glad the wait is over! Note to future applicants: Arrange your statement such that even the lazy (or, for benefit of the doubt, tired and eyes glazed over from reading so many statements) reviewer cannot miss the important bits.
