So I have been admitted to MIT but have no potential advisor yet and I am freaking out before making a final decision about whether I should choose MIT or just go to Berkeley where I do have around three choices. I had a couple of questions for seasoned graduate students about how to approach professors. First, the area I am interested in, I dont have much research experience in it. Do professors expect you to have experience in that already? Also, is it ok to attach a resume? Furthermore, I am not sure what the email subject should look like. Till now I have been using "potential graduate student" etc. Most forums have emailing before admission discussion but I would love to see some email tempelates or advice for when you have already been admitted.
