@dopamine_machine: Thanks a lot for your advice!

Hey guys, I am looking for some advice on selecting a university and I'm worried now as I haven't decided yet and the 15-Apr deadline is approaching. All programs are fully funded. I am thinking about working on semiconductor or energy materials area. Cornell:- Pros- high reputation?, Ivy, research facilities/ Cons- 5-5.5 yr PhD CMU:- Pros- 4yr phD program/ Cons- profs that I was interested in working with are too old and probably not take in any new students Brown:- Pros- Ivy, one prof is good (I felt good vibes with him), 4yr PhD/ Cons- Engg. prorgram not as reputed as other 2? I am thinking to give more importance to university reputation and leaning towards Cornell. Any suggestions are most welcome^^

nope. Haven't heard from them yet.
