Hey guys, just wanna leave my info and list here. International undergrad computer science student GPA: 3.59 Toefl: 112 GRE: 145V / 170Q / 4.5 AW Research experience: 2 different projects. 2 months on a different topic, 2 months (and ongoing) on my interest My List: Stanford UC Berkeley Cornell UPenn University of Utah University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill I don't expect to be admitted to any of these, but we shall see. I have burned about $1100 including tests for applications. Good luck to all applicants. It is a tiresome process and hope we all get in somewhere in the end.

In the last paragraph, you say that you performed poorly because of stress. Don't do that, because this means you will perform bad again if you are under stress in the future. Just say you were focusing on research or whatever.

I know I want a Ph.D. because the level of knowledge I currently have is far from enough from me and I want to go deep and explore things. Certain things you just know. It is arguable that research during undergraduate years can be indicator of a Ph.D. level research. I am not really looking for top programs since I know I won't be accepted. Any university in top 250 or around is fine with me. Can I get into a top 250 university with no reserach experience? (Times world ranking for example) I don't consider MS since I have no money for that.

Hello I am a 4th year undergraduate student in computer science and this December I am applying to Ph.D. programs. The problem is, I have no research experience. I live in an isolated campus and the professors at my university have no experience in my area of interest. There is no lab for research too. So my university really sucked to support me to do research and I will have to apply without any experience. I was never informed of this research experience aspect and it is really bad for me to see that it is very important. What should I do? It is too late to do proper research at the moment, so what do you suggest? Should I try to implement an easy-level paper published in a journal and talk about that in my application? Like working on it for the following 2 months and demonstrating practical and research experience I have over a subject? I tried to improve it but couldnt really kind of stuff? Or maybe you have some other ideas?

When I used power prep, it was averagely 165 Q, 142 V In real test, i got 170Q, 146 V
