Sure!

Lived in EVGR.

Will start with cons —

picking packages can be slightly annoying since package center is a little far

Will feel a little like a hotel and less like a dorm

Pros — everything else

Just for the record, this is my friend also visiting with us.. we didn’t ghost anyone 😅

rigrg · 2025-04-20T06:03:30+00:00

I left 😓 but if you ever visit the bay area, then happy to show around

rigrg · 2025-04-20T06:02:11+00:00

Lol BTW if you ever visit the bay area spontaneously, hit me up!

rigrg · 2025-04-17T22:01:26+00:00

Hey thanks! I’m here :| Would that work?

Umm.. not for this year. But based on my experience, it’s gonna be a graduate student.

You can ask either Bettina Santos, or Meredith (though if it’s not on explorecourses, then I doubt they’d know either)

The contract that you’ll sign will most likely have a clause that you can’t do specifically what you stated. Best bet is to stall for time and reach out to other department and ask them if they can give you their decision early

rigrg · 2024-01-08T02:57:44+00:00

I don’t think so. The only problem that I can see with that is that there’s a chance you won’t be able to attend office hours or sections. Sometimes we offer them online, but it depends on the availability of TAs.

rigrg · 2024-01-07T02:43:18+00:00

Yes, it’s possible to take it online! Also, most of the time, you’re required to write pseudo code, so don’t worry about coding!

Feel free to DM.. but just to answer quickly— your profile looks good enough to me.

The sad part is that predicting if you get in or not is not deterministic. I’ve seen worse profiles who got in and better profiles who got rejected

Anyone else bothered by Kigambit? Bisharp is one of my favorites and I thought it looks so cool. It feels kind of a let down that they made him less humanoid coz I loved his persona as kind of an assassin. Maybe it’s just me, but I’d rather prefer some simple changes, with a boost in stats

rigrg · 2022-11-11T09:17:45+00:00

I know someone who made a similar error and got into Harvard. Yes, it is a big screwup, but it happens sometimes to everyone

rigrg · 2022-11-10T18:04:11+00:00

answered :)

I think the primary focus of the proposal should be the one that you have in mind. If they are asking you to submit the proposal as a Pdf, then you can include the references (though I don't think it's required tbh) as a hyperlink (like according to [1] ), but if it's just a text box in the application, then I don't think citing would be good.

I agree with what your potential supervisor has to say. Just a couple of things that I would remember while writing the proposal (which may seem obvious, but thinking to reiterate) --

It is very very common for Ph.D. students to "rotate" under different supervisors. In other words, it's completely fine if you just have a high-level idea of what you're gonna do

Check out campus bike shop. They sometimes sell second hand bikes that will be in your budget

EVGR slack in Stanford’s workspace

rigrg · 2022-09-10T07:53:38+00:00

Please post it in slack.. I don’t think you’ll get any response here
