[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you realize that acceptance rates are not a measure of educational quality or outcomes, it makes the process a lot easier. [/quote] here here! I was a low stat kid who went to a uni that accepted most people for undergrad but was competitive for grad school. Therefore, as an undergrad, I had ample opportunities to do research. I did research in 5 labs i think; published twice before graduating and got a fancy research award. The result: FREE GRAD SCHOOL at a top 10 public. [b]I was too poor to be a high stat kid in high school[/b] and in college my grades were on the bottom cusp of what the grad schools accepted. I got into two full-pay and went to the "better" one. The differentiator, of course, research and publications.[/quote] BS. I was a low-income high stats kid. Income has nothing to do with academic performance. Quit making excuses. [/quote]
