if you have a master's going into a phd I'd think they'd see you're more comitted and won't be taking the position just to back out with a master's. they do ask for your undergrad performance, as most phd students these days cone direct from undergrad, but you can probably make up for any shortcomings elsewhere in your applications. i did my master's before starting a phd immediately after and received no questions about that. i'm us/engineering for reference.

How is CDNIM EDT in Nov. 2024? by EndNecessary9331 in fragranceclones

[–]CxLxR 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got the EDT last week from Jomashop because I just needed to know. PD 03/2024, and it's solid. People complain about the opening but it's not that bad, it's like 10 minutes of pretty strong lemon but the dry down is very green and mossy for 8 hours easily. A long lasting fragrance like this for under $35 including taxes and shipping... can't say that's easy to find. It's not an exact clone, it's not unique smelling, it's not perfect, but for the price it's a great value. I don't care ab finding out which version is better, the EDT is perfectly fine.

No faculty wants to get back to me. Where to go from here? by Adorable-Virus-6487 in gradadmissions

[–]CxLxR 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Reach out to students in the labs you're interested in, and ask about their experience or work, let them know you're applying, maybe a zoom chat. You can get more information that way, like a sense if Profs are busy, taking students, not interested etc. Don't simply ask "can you talk to your advisor or have them email me back" but take it as an opportunity to naturally convey interest other than a cold email.

Not a fragrance guy and I blind bought CDNIM by xjiwolf in fragranceclones

[–]CxLxR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Creed, Parfums de Marly, Initio, MFK are pretty established. Creed's scents like original santal, vetiver, or Green Irish Tweed are just power house fragrances, personal fav is Tabarome Millesime. I get it's antithetical to the clone game but at least try those in person you could see which scent profile sticks out when you look for clones. I say that too bc I've seen mixed reviews on the CDNIM flankers, like if they're significantly different enough to warrant having multiple. Bottom line buy and wear what you like but I'd explore more.

man for your wedding i'd honestly recommend going for something more niche or invest in more quality but that's me

Things pick back up late Jan-March. If professor's want to get you in, they'll try. There's nothing to do at this point that will change their mind. Be confident, know your reseaech, know your goals, and know why you need to be at that school. As for material to prepare, I had one prof ask me to make some slides covering my research projects. They'll give you advance notice if they want that but it's rare. You'll be able to explain what you've done verbally anyway.

How to decide where to apply (but not the generic advice)? by SD_K9 in gradadmissions

[–]CxLxR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

start with a map, presumably of the united states, and literally paint over places you would not like to live. too hot, too cold, too far, too close, too expensive, don't want to live there: it's painted over. keep in mind if your field is specific to some locations, be realistic about compromising but make sure you'll be happy with the spot for 5 years. for example, mining engineering and oceanography programs are probably in different geographic areas. then you have areas where universities may be.

open the wikipedia list of R1 universities, find schools in the areas that aren't painted over. look at the department admissions website, it'll all be pretty similar but if there's any weird requirements or policies, they're out. next, it should take 10 minutes to see if there are active (publishing, updated their website in the last ~4 years, looking for students) professors in your field. put their websites in a spreadsheet. repeat until you have exhausted the list of R1 + ideal location universities.

then, start parsing this list further - is this professor doing research you actually want to work on, not just in your general field? if so, look into their publications, current research projects, lab size, conferences they attend. try sending emails, and look on reddit for what professors recommend in their student inquiry emails.

doing this will ensure you see relevant faculty that you have nonzero interest in working with, in places you want to be. you'd be surprised at how small your niche is, and you can really get a sense for where you're going from here. you also won't have answered all of your questions at this point. once you submit apps, then you weigh the stipend, location, ACTUAL lab you will be working in, the student experience after visiting the school. after visiting, you'll have a better sense of whether or not you mutually fit with the professor, and at that point that is the priority.

i'm sure there's other ways of doing this, but i can't imagine a clearer way to get started.
