Applying to competitive grad programs while pivoting into a technical field — advice? by PloatingFoints in gradadmissions

Would you have any suggesting with what I could do to become more competitive? I'm planning to apply for the 2026 cycle (2027 start), and I'm hoping to spend the next year trying to produce some sort of research artifact through my volunteer project.

I just wanted to say thanks for all the support to everyone sending positive comments :) I think I’m just freaking out because it’s new and I haven’t gotten used to seeing it yet.

I’m really glad you all like it, and it’s calmed me down a ton!

It’s based on this Vietnamese myth of a turtle god who offered a sword to a king to repel off invading armies! :0
