I was given some very useful (although harsh) feedback, and I'd like to use it to apply again next year. However, I'm not currently in school, which means that I don't have any opportunities at the moment to gain additional publications/conferences. I haven't been in an academic environment now for two years. I know that if I apply as a first year grad student, the stakes will be higher and I will be expected to have publications. Does anybody have any advice about this? Any success stories despite lack of publications? Any ideas for how to boost my CV really quickly during the first few months of grad school...even though this will be a relatively new field for me? Thank you, and congratulations to the winners!
