I got refused but I am still asked to provide documents.
What do you think this should mean?
Edit: it means I am out.
Good luck to everyone who got admitted. To those who didn't, too.
Oh, come on, people. Why the hurry? I kind of like the uncertainty.
I would prefer to be evaluated on the basis of substance, not numbers alone.
When you are in a hurry, i imagine, you tend to focus on the numbers only because they are easy to compare - the actual merit of the candidates goes in the background.
My point is, I am OK with the waiting and I think it is for the better. Let them take their time.
Good luck to you all.
Two hour lunch break? Starting work at 9 and ending at 5.30? This would be a huge wow! for me, if that's the the only thing they do.
But most likely we are talking about some grad students trying to make some bucks on the side.
