crackademik Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Actually I do not understand of my rejection by emory. I come from one of the top schools in China, also have a honor degree towards chemistry. I have three papers accepted, including 2 second authorship and 1 forth authorship, as well as another paper as the first authorship being reviewed by ChemPlusChem. Additionally, I have four every strong ROLs from my professors, including one ROL from a UC Los Angeles professor. All in all, good luck to those who have been admitted by Emory University, enjoy yourself there ! If I had the chance again, I would not apply for Emory again, it is not worthy for me to do this.

Guest Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Dear Candidate, Thank you for giving us your hard earned $90. Now that we have your money, which we had summarily tossed down a flight of stairs to determine whether we will read your application or not, we regret to inform you that there were many other applicants with much better luck than you. Have a nice life, and please don't contact us again, because we'll get a restraining order. Seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

University Of Pennsylvania MCGD, PhD (F18) Rejected via E-mail on 13 Jan 2019 12 Jan 2019 report spam To the UPenn poster below... I am Native American and biologically female, have a second-author paper in Science and a first-author in a very minor journal, as well as 1 year of full-time research experience and all the works. Also got rejected. Top programs are always a coin-toss after a certain threshold is met, I don't think it has anything to do with your race or gender. University Of Pennsylvania BGS, PhD (F19) Interview via Other on 13 Jan 2019 12 Jan 2019 report spam To my fellow white dude below: I was given an interview at penn (as well as been rejected from a looot of other top programs). All of these programs are hyper competitive and it only begots bitterness to bellitle the success of others... even if they don’t look like you. Fight on! Hahaha, I'm dead.
