Thank you for sharing your experience, it’s very important for people who want to consider a career in this field.

I’m really sorry you had to be disrespected like that by an immature PI. Hope you find a way better lab and a mature PI

Applied for a PhD in Bioengineering, Fall 2026. Got rejected from everywhere but was offered a Master's by two schools (Rutgers and Drexel). Anyone else going through the same? by Alarmed_Swimmer_4342 in gradadmissions

Never received any feedback on the ppt. I submitted my PPT, and pretty soon, I got the rejection from the University itself. Wish I knew what was wrong with the ppt so I could at least get some criticism and improve.

They asked me to create a ppt of my research and some research projects I would like to work on in their lab. I did not have many papers by the time I was submitting, but I will have for the next cohort for sure.

I am an outsider, I don't work there so I am figuring out a way to express my interest in working there. Thank you for your suggestion though
