Graduate School Ranking
I'm starting to get a trickle of news from schools. The details will be withheld until I make a decision to prevent biasing schools that have yet to contact me. The few people I've talked to have made me feel that my shotgun approach will give me an embarrassment of riches. I applied to nine schools because I wasn't sure what my odds of acceptance were. Apparently I am good candidate so I need some ideas to help me thin the choices. I'm using PhDs.org to do comparisons but some of their data is from 1993!
