Hey all,
I was awarded CGS. Second time applying, did not make the final round last year. This time I had way more people review my application and applied to a committee that better matched my bibliography (I'm in an Interdisciplinary program). I have a lot of experience outside academia and that boosted my score I think. Keep applying, I know the disappointment is rough.
Committee: 767-3A
Score: 10.78 / 12
Rank: 5/151
Last funded application: 9.03/12
