Thanks a lot for taking time to review those questions Erin. Actually,I do have some specific subject related questions in mind to ask a few profs with whom I am interested to work with in the future. I am just not posting them here bcoz I thought it'll sound like jargon...They r totally subject oriented....These questions that I posted here are more generic.....

Oh, okay, that makes me feel better now! I thought perhaps you were going to ask only these questions. So, I'd say you're in pretty good shape, Sri.

One thing I've noticed, Sri, about my employees, students, and friends who have attended top schools is that they generally seem to be very prepared when they do things--they don't like failure, and they don't like being last. They, as a whole, tend to give their best in a lot of things, especially in the beginning, when they need to make a good first impression.

So, just keep your cool, be confident, be honest, and most important, let your natural equanimity and strength shine through, and you'll do fine!

Knock 'em dead!!

Hey Erin, Raghuveer,

That's no nice of u guys to wish me good luck...Thank you soooooooooo much...I am just done reading tomorrow's topic..Frankly, I could understand only 10-20% of it with the knowledge that I have in the field right now, but, I guess I will understand it better tomorrow when the prof explains it in detail.....

Erin, I will definetely follow your advice about presenting myself there....

Until tomorrow,
-Sri.

Erin, what do you mean when you say
