I did have a short interview with POI in January. Definitely should have come across better, might be where I lost it. Email did not specify POI. Apart from that 4.0 GPA, multiple scholarships, some engineering awards and one conference presentation

Thanks for sharing!! I'd say my chances are very small in any case. I have 4.0 GPA, scholarships, engineering awards, BUT no publications ? ....and I applied for the PhD (apparently you can't apply for the masters when already enrolled in one)

Class, I'll see you in MIT so? hahaha

Hey guys, by any small chance was anyone else waitlisted for material science and mechanical engineering? I applied to biodesign and I'm trying to figure what my chances actually are, given that I'm on a "short roster of students" according to the email I got. It looks like a lot of people on here are interested in biodesign/biophysics/bioengineering, so I'd imagine it would be extremely competitive to actually gain admittance. I assume that another PhD admitted to the biodesign lab would have to decline the offer for me to get in ? . Thanks!!

Do you think they are sending out offers in waves, or literally one at a time? With all the admits today, I assume this means we are not in the first wave and will be waiting at least another 2 weeks before we know? ?
