  1. No go =[ VG/E E/E VG/VG at least what they said was a confidence boost (just not their final decision jeje) u_u but as the wise Groucho Marxs once said...."Eh. I don't want to belong to any club that would accept people like me as a member" jeje congratulations to everyone who won =]
  2. Very true. According to http://www.cgsnet.org/us-graduate-schools-report-slight-growth-new-students-fall-2012about 461,000 graduate students enrolled in 2012. Assuming that enrollment rate is fairly constant through the years and knowing the following stats: - About 40% of grad students are "national" students and hence eligible. https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2013/07/12/new-report-shows-dependence-us-graduate-programs-foreign-students - Around 50% of us are enrolled in STEM fields (see cgsnet link above) - 3 "generations" of us are applying (Entering students, 1st year and 2nd year) (let us use 2.5 considering there may be some fallout) We come to an estimate of 230,500 eligible students.... of which only we 16,000 applied Hence from the total pool of eligible students only about 7% of us applied...... ....all of a sudden 12% looks a lot better than a 0.8% chance no? =]
  3. Webpage is sufficient. I submitted that last year and it was accepted without any problem.
  4. Just turn it in! Le Done?....... Now we wait (once again!!!!!![?]) =]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]] (double chins)
  5. In honor of "anti-publication bias": VG/E G/G VG/VG - not awarded .... The blood loss is not that severe because of the helpful feedback - but =\ TILL NEXT YEAR!!!! (。^_・)ノ
  6. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdBym7kv2IM A song for all the scientist and engineers tonight ..... "nobody said it'd be easy" =']
  7. What if at one point all applicants have at least visited gradcafe "once"? ... and only the ones who actually did good posted ....hence "publication bias" O_O
  8. HIMYM and GRFP.... no matter what the outcome I'm guaranteed to cry this week =]
