Komugi replied to dmacfour's topic in Meet and Greet
Hi! I am also going to WSU to start my PhD in electrical engineering in Fall 2018. I am currently looking for a roommate. Are you interested? -
Yes, I think I should not apply to schools that accept an average gre score higher than mine, though as international application I am already not so sure which schools I should apply to. Is there a way I could know how many samples were used to generate the statisitcs for each search? For example, if I search for electrical engieering, the app says it used data from the most recent 20 pages of search results. Since some applicants submit their scores and others do not, I cannot simply multiply the number of submissions per page by 20 and expect to the result to be the number of samples used. Is there a way I can know the sample size used to generate the statistics? Thanks

KAUST's admission process is just too tedious and time-consuming. Ideally, they should set a date for when all results are to be announced.

Not too confident about my GRE score (159-Q 164-V 4.0 AWA)
Komugi replied to cybergla's topic in GRE/GMAT/etc
From my experience, you definitely need a 165+ Q score to get into top schools.- 6 replies

Hi all, Do I have to specify anywhere in my order whether I want the score report to be sent electronically or by mail? Or will ets instead automatically send my scores electronically if the designated university accepts electronic submissions? thanks

Nervous as hell to ask for LoRs!!!
Komugi replied to PhdApplicant311's topic in Letters of Recommendation
Best of luck PhdApplicant311! You seem to be a very hard worker. I think the way out of such dilemmas is to allow professors enough time to write the letters; Letting them know 3 Months before submitting your application is good enough time. -

I would follow MIT to the edge of the universe. -
How do european profile compare to other international profiles ?
Komugi replied to aquazeta's topic in Computer Science
You could ask your professors to mention in their recommendations that you're among the top 5% or 3% of your class for instance. The good thing about your profile is your very high GRE scores, which is a common ground for comparing applications. So, you should do fine in your applications to top schools. May I ask how did you prepare for the GRE. I am preparing for the exam and so any advice would be very much appreciated. -
If anyone gets a reply, please let us know. All the best to everyone!

Komugi replied to Owlet's topic in Waiting it Out
Owlet and Feanor, you both got admitted to top schools. That's really impressive. I've been struggling to get into good universities, those who are just barely in the upper quartile, let alone the top. So, what's your secret? A pretty high GRE, an excellent SOP, a good research background? Please let me know. thanks! -
send weekly updates during application review.

Haha...Well done on your interview! You handled the questions well to your favor. I hope you got admitted in the end. I am currently also waiting for a decision, so I can relate to your recalling the interviews you've had, and doubting whether you could have done any better. But in the end it's not the end of the world or something like that. At least, that's what I try to convince myself of.

If you hover over the red dot in the website for the submission, it mentions GPA and GRE scores. Of course, other factors influence admission. But if this person wants to get into any humanities program in an ivy league, he/she would have a very strong chance of getting admitted because of her/his very high verbal and AW scores, and high quantitative score. I am also sure that many great universities would be willing to take her/him in engineering as well.

The rejected guy has a GPA of 4.00 and 5 in AW. That's crazy. How was she/he rejected?!!
