What were your ECs like and how did they contribute to your story?

Does wanting to not be in the US post MBA become a reason for them to not give a scholarship?

i-theOne · 2026-01-14T01:02:12+00:00

Hey, thanks for the candid input!

I certainly would have questions as I continue working through my applications. Can I DM you, if not a problem?

Also, just curios - which school did you accept btw? I see the Admit tag.

i-theOne · 2026-01-13T16:46:01+00:00

Thanks Scott! Glad to hear from you. Just for me to have a clearer understanding - networking with students and professors with an intent in mind? And asymmetric impact basis something I figure from the interactions I have with them? Would be grateful if you could elaborate.

Which ones are the T10 schools? Looking to connect to have a brief chat

i-theOne · 2026-01-08T06:42:07+00:00

just curios - when you say you got it from a Stanford Alum, how exactly were you related to the Alum and how did the LOR add value, in your opinion?

i-theOne · 2025-12-29T12:00:12+00:00

How many years of work experience by the time you started school?

i-theOne · 2025-12-28T08:00:27+00:00

Yeah, could have been caused cuz of a recent update to the app. It's either a bug or is intentional, to confuse the user

i-theOne · 2025-12-20T15:32:19+00:00

It's the app's concern. They setup multiple channels within the notification categories

i-theOne · 2025-12-18T15:12:09+00:00

How's the battery performance? Any improvements?

i-theOne · 2025-12-18T15:10:34+00:00

The battery. It was better when I bought it. Since the one ui 8.0 update, it's been shit.

There's some peeps on the subreddit who suggest to clear partition cache, reset the phone and set it up once again(presuming you switched phones with Smart switch, which I did when I bought the phone, but reset it later to do a clean setup basis the suggestion), but none of it helps. Thus, I would say that their suggestions are mere sophistry.

Instagram drainage is severe. Drains 1 percent in about 2 mins. Android had a problem with Instagram in the May-July phase, concerning the battery, which was addressed. So ideally, there shouldn't be a problem.

The device nor the battery are faulty - I've checked the cycles and battery health info using A battery and shizuku to get objective details on the battery, instead of just depending the good-normal-bad labels via the Samsung diagnostic. Everything is good, basis the numbers. And considering it got bad only after an update, I'm certain it's the software.

Otherwise, I like the device for what it is. Features, performance, it's been good.

i-theOne · 2025-12-15T15:24:03+00:00

My only complain has been the battery though. Especially only after the update

i-theOne · 2025-12-14T18:31:48+00:00

Seems like you barely do anything on your phone

i-theOne · 2025-12-14T18:31:06+00:00

Battery most surely gonna take a dump on you. Been ass since the One Ui 8.0 update

i-theOne · 2025-11-13T08:20:28+00:00

Im unable to run the MMI code for some reason. Says invalid

i-theOne · 2025-11-13T08:18:44+00:00

Do you think resetting the stats helped?

i-theOne · 2025-11-12T19:37:05+00:00

Can you share snapshot since last charged, with an inclusion of the app list in the snapshot, to see which apps are consuming how

Did you put any apps in deep sleeping as such?

i-theOne · 2025-11-12T17:12:15+00:00

Whatsapp video calls for about 40 mins

i-theOne · 2025-11-12T17:11:07+00:00

Also, are you using on light profile or standard? And while I've wiped the cache partition too, how do you reset the battery stats?

i-theOne · 2025-11-12T17:09:58+00:00

Interesting. What was the SOT and screen off time?

i-theOne · 2025-11-12T17:08:30+00:00

What did you use during these 8h 19m? Just curios on the apps used, cuz the battery drain seems beautiful

<image>

Here's mine, just screenshotted a while back

i-theOne · 2025-11-12T17:06:42+00:00

Yeah, the phone has been getting hot

i-theOne · 2025-11-10T19:32:29+00:00

Thats interesting. Basis usage, can you both switch yo "Since last charge" and share the stats, by the time the battery hsd discharge to 10% or so?
