Uuuuuf bro that's stressful.
Btw I didn't know that this fellowship was more prestigious than the nsf. I spent a solid week working on the application.
My phd advisor advisor encouraged me to fill out the application. I got all letter writers to submit within a week. I got really lucky. Still it was a lot of work especially the proposal.
How did your proposal writing go? I didn't spend enough time on the personal statement. Whoops!
