Hiii! Omg, I went to UPenn DEEPenn visit last year and you were one of the panel there that was talking about the grad school admission process! Can’t believe I found your KZfaq video. Congrats!

Wow! I'm surprised you remembered me! I hope the panel was useful and that you've been doing well since then!

Congrats! NSF is a very huge deal, only for very top phd. And physics is very hard to get in. Did you email caltech or mit? Wonder do those school change decisions

What is most important is the knowledge you acquire and the work that you do, i.e. the papers published, during graduate school. Within a few years of your career, no one will care where you went to graduate school or who rejected or accepted you.

This is just objectively false. Physics is incredibly incestuous.

you are going to Phd program, not BS. You should know what you want to do and which professor's research group you want to join. It looks like you applied only because these university's name. Your reaction also liked a high school kid. You have not shown your true love.

I applied for the NSF GRFP as well (: Am hoping to hear back from them because I got denied from my dream program 😢 You received your acceptance email from them in May???
@Lautrek 3 ай бұрын
From the NSF GRPF website, it says "Reviewed applicants will be notified of the results of the competition by early April.", so it was probably around then.

The video was very helpful. If I am not getting many interviews, should I reach out to the professors mentioned in my SOPs, or should I wait a bit longer, since it's only about January 10th?

@Lautrek 3 ай бұрын
You could consider reaching out to professors you're interesting in working with to chat more about their work and determine if this would be something you'd want to be a part of. I don't know the criteria that admissions uses on whether or not to interview people, so I can't comment much on that.
