  1. I know about two top 10 schools; they had more applicants than last year, although not radically more.
  2. I can't blame them; probably, the applications doubled (or more) since the GRE requirement is now optional.
  3. I know it's hard. But I'd say wait. You will know sooner or later.
  4. If rejected, the best option for international students outside Europe (mainly the U.K.) is to enroll in an M.A. This situation is super sad, but it is just the reality for us internationals. Unlike European academia, U.S. academia is particularly focused on itself and networked in the U.S. On the other hand, I do agree somewhat that your list is top tier, but not tier 0. Immo: T0: UW-Madison, Michigan, UCLA, Yale, Columbia, and Penn T1: JHU, Brown, Northwestern, and maybe UCSD or UCI. Also, the universities you have applied to haven't said anything yet. Best of luck!!
  5. Hi fellas, I created this legendary topic in this forum. I did it because I noticed some changes regarding GRE. First, is that UC Berkeley is changing from required to optional. Second, UW-Madison is totally dropping the GRE requirement. Third, UT-Austin went from optional to required quant and verbal scores (Writing will not be reviewed, they claim). If you have any further information, please don't hesitate to post it here.
  6. I am still waiting for JHU. However, I am just waiting for them to send me a rejection, similar to what I did with UCSB.
  7. I haven't been rejected, waitlisted, or accepted to JHU. I'm losing my mind. Just reject me already. Is anyone in the same position?
  8. Hey! No worries! Thank you for the insight. Do you mind if I ask you about your research interests?
