Hey all,
Yes, this is another chance thread where you smart nerds can talk some sense into me, the miserably confused one.
I'm a senior majoring in bioengineering/biomedical engineering at an ivy. GPA is 3.5/4.0, GRE is 640v 800q 4.0W and have spent all summers working at a
biochem lab and plant pathology lab and this year at a bioengineering lab. Unfortunately, I didn't get to publish anything yet. Thing is I didn't really like research before til I joined my current lab and I got to work on a cool rewarding project that is still ongoing. As for rec letters, I think I can get a great one from current professor, another decent one from a prof whose course I did very well in, and a mediocre/lukewarm one from my faculty advisor (he doesn't know me well)
I'm currently scheming through the faculty profiles/research interests at many schools but honestly I haven't got an idea of where I stand in the pool of brilliant kids.
Do I have any chance at the Top 10 grad schools in the field? What kind of schools could be said to be a "match" for me?
looking forward to some brutally honest comments.
thanks y'all.
