Choosing grad schools (am I being too ambitious?)
graddiaries posted a question in Questions and Answers
Hi! I'm planning to apply to grad schools this year (for fall 2022 admissions). I'm a little nervous about my grad school list. I want to pursue a Ph.D. in Biological/Biomedical Engineering. Interested Research Areas - Computational Biology/Medicine, Omics, Bioinformatics, Neural Engineering. Undergrad - Electronics and Communication Engineering; GPA - 8/10 (First Class with Distinction) Masters (in my undergrad institution) - Biomedical Engineering ; GPA - 8.5/10 (recipient of Merit Scholarship) Research Experience - ~3 years (since my undergrad) ; first author of two papers (IEEE Conference and Springer Peer Reviewed Symposium). A couple of manuscripts on the way (will complete them before I apply to grad schools). I have worked in 2 labs since my Undergrad. My Dream Universities: MIT BE , JHU , DUKE , GEORGIA TECH Moderate/Safe UNC , PURDUE , PENN STATE , NC STATE (Will be giving GRE in July, hope to perform reasonably well) Am I being too ambitious?? ? Any suggestions about which schools might be a 'safe' for me? Thanks :) -
