报ad +咨询 2011 fall ad @ upenn Robotics

.1point3acres其实昨天晚上就拿到结果了，但是因为gf今天要面试wake forest，不想影响她的状态，就瞒了一整天。。真辛苦啊。。

好，先show一下通知书（貌似大家看过很多遍了）

本人背景如下
澳门大学 （非211 985）
GPA 3.51
Rank 2/42
G 1330 +3.5
t105(s20)
无论文，有半年实验室经历，编了一个snow network，无牛腿


学校没名气，gt还可以，别的东西都很鸡肋吧。。由此+地里其他ad的情况看来，upenn确实是gt控啊，有意upenn cs ad 的gt到1300左右 和 100+ 的筒子们不要犹豫啦
不过在太傻上看到一个rej特例，条件完全比我强，不知为什么被rej了。。求大牛解释
http://edu.taisha.org/bbs/thread-1838527-1-1.html

材料寄齐以后虽然官方说是decision will be made within 4-6 weeks, 但是刚好两礼拜就拿到ad了，跟地里报cs ad的同志们时间都差不多，不得不赞upenn效率+1~

现在想尽快了解一下upenn的各种内幕信息，看看upenn是不是真的适合我。除了看官方网页外，有什么地方比较能查到这类信息的吗？地里有谁比较熟悉upenn cis系吗？继续召唤大牛

因为我想读完master以后继续读phd，所以想尽快开始准备研究，强化背景。这样的话，在我学校定下来以后开学以前是不是可以读读论文，套套老师？

最后祝地里同志们都有满意的结果！

CONG~

cong！！

GRASP lab of upenn has a pretty good reputation in robotics.

Vijay Kumar is one of the biggest cow in robotics.

BTW 我也申了他家的robotics,十一月初就under review了，现在都还没消息

请问LZ，你GT送分的时候G时2926，T是2888吗？我T选了DEPARTMENT66，不知道会不会收不到

因为我12.1提交的，一直没收到材料齐的邮件，但系统里已经under review了
