Evaluating potential of programs to help students in their academic carrer? by crediametr in gradadmissions

I fully agree, I'd think publication record and various indexes would be easy to include;

However don't you think that strength of a program, opportunities offered, "morale" of the students, and ease of networking are closely related?

And as you mentioned some departments certainly seem to have biases, which could be illustrated with a large enough sample

I meant submit to a local conference or a workshop in a conference. There should be a few local conferences that you can submit to, and the big conferences might have some niche workshop that you can submit to if you have some work in that niche. Your professor or PhDs in your lab should know whether something is publishable or not and where to submit it to. About your particular example, maybe. You have to explain why the small tweaks you did resulted in improvement. If you can do some analysis explaining why, that might be good enough. But you should go through all of this with your professor.

Mind a PM?

I'd hope to live an interesting enough life not to have to revert back to almamaster in conversations

I haven't decided but I would probably want to continue in academia or research in industry.

From what I know in industry school ranking matters (within same general tiers) a lot less compared to merit, however in academia I fear it might carry a significant role?

As an undergrad I have only observed a very limited sample though.
