My admission results
Hi!
I just wanted to thank everyone in this forum. Tough I didn't post much, I found the information given to be of great value. Just to share, these are my admission results: Profile: -GRE: 790 quant, 610 verbal, 4.5 writing -TOEFL: 113 -Undergrad: National University of Mexico, Computer Science, graduated with honors and a (converted) GPA of 4.0 -Research: Poster in an international congress and research experience in a biomedical lab in my university. Applied mostly to bioinformatics PhD programs. Universities that rejected me: -MIT (C&SBiology) -Janelia Farm Graduate Program (I had no background in neurology, but wanted to try out anyway =P) -University of California Santa Cruz (Bioninformatics) Universities that accepted me: -Duke University (CB&Bioinfo) with a great stipend and fellowship. I interviewed there and the grad students and faculty were awesome. -Stanford University (Biomed Inform): Great university, awesome fac and grad students as well. Got a great fellowship as well. -University of Waterloo (Master in CS): With stipend, great university as well. -Columbia University: Applied to PhD in Biomedical Informatics, but they told me to take the masters first, without financial aid. I had a tough time deciding on Duke or Stanford, but Stanford honored me with a really great fellowship and the faculty was really supportive, so I will be going there. Best of luck to you all! |
