Hello everyone! I am extremely frustrated!
I have applied 8 environmental engineering phd program in US, now only 2 schools pending. 6 rejected me, among those 6 school, 3 reject me due to that I do not have engineering degree in B.S (but I do have in MS)
So anyone who knows that your professor are looking for new student (environmental chemistry and microbial), please tell me and let me have a chance!
My background:
I got B.S in Chemistry, average score 82/100. last 60 credits 84/100.
I got M.S in environmental engineering. GPA 3.448
My Gre: 450 + 750 3.0
Gre Sub in chem 760 (76%)
I have 2 years chemical lab research in nano-organic
1 years in environmental engineering lab research in sand filter.
I have 2 papers in chem (not first author), did 3 project in environmental engineering field.
I am still waiting for U Iowa and Colorado school of mines! Still review, so frustrated.
Could anybody who apply those schools and is studying in those schools give me some advice?
Many Thanks!
