  1. Oopps. My area is MEMS/NEMS and nanoscience (within mechanical engineering) I asked people but our school does not have old exam (the link to old exam is broken and nobody is fixing it) They told me that the questions threw them off. That it requires thinking... I didn't really get much helpf Hence, I'm trying to gather as much variety of questions within nanoscience.
  2. Hi, I'm studying for the preliminary exam. I came back from US Army training so I won't get another chance if I fail this upcoming exam. I heard they ask weird questions which I'm having trouble preparing for. Right now, I am reviewing all the lecture notes. Does anybody have previous exam questions they can share so I can practice? What kinds of questions did you get? thanks in advance.
  3. I got rejected so I guess it doesn't matter anymore lol. Did anyine get accepted?
  4. I really hope they will let us know this week as the deadline for April 15th is approaching... any admission letter after we accept offers from other university is as good as rejection letter.
  5. Jingtian, where did you hear they have rolling admission? Nowhere in website nor in the application states rolling admission..
  6. Hmm I guess we will never find out. But since we are engineers lets focus on numbers. Someone on gradcafe results said 40 pending application. Anynody heard anything?
  7. anyone has any idea how many are wailt-listed? Someone I met got into Berkeley in June, way past April 15th deadline... I got wait-listed at Berkeley as well.
  8. All MIT waitlisted people lets gather here so we can have some idea how many!
  9. Do you mind telling us how much funding? Also what makes UCLA a good school (I can't decide where)
  10. I was contacted by a faculty. It was through RA position but it was the same amount as the department fellowship. I was nominated for department fellowship but I didn't get it (high competition I guess) so I was offered RA instead. I'm interested in TA since 13.5K would be pretty tight. is it possible to survive Sept-early June with $13.5K(before tax)?
  11. I got the funding offer. Besides tuition and fees, total salary of about $13.5K for Fall,Winter,and Spring. Anyone else got higher? I don't quite understand UCLA's quarter system. Do I have to last from September to April/May with 13.5k? Financially, it will be tough considering LA is an expensive place to live.
  12. btw, thanks MechE2014 for helping us out with information. it helped me reduce some stress and anxiety. if we both end up at UCLA, beer is on me.
  13. What do you mean by "awarded fellowship within 2 weeks" ?? has the 2 weeks already passed? I was told that I was nominated for fellowship through email but I haven't received the official letter so I'm little worried now. Did anyone get fellowship? If so, how much?
  14. jhyutian, I received the official acceptance letter via email on February 14th. I was first contacted by other professor and not Rajit Gadh the day before. I would try and email the admission office or ME department. best of luck
