So as a CS MS applicant, with 800Q/720V/5.0 GRE, 3.74 GPA, 3.9+ major GPA. No undergrad research, I expect this is my weak point, though as a Masters applicant I didn't think it would matter too much. So far I've been rejected from MIT, Berkeley, and UMD. MIT I can understand, I haven't been published (lol), and Berkeley is a similar deal...but I'm surprised I didn't get into UMD with those numbers. I'm still waiting to hear from Stanford. Is it unreasonable to think that I have a shot at getting accepted?
I have gotten into a couple other pretty decent schools, so if I don't get into Stanford I'm not completely screwed, will just be sad. :-(
