Never give up!
Two years ago I applied to 11 PhD programs and was rejected by all. I wept and wanted to give up but I chose to persevere!
This year I got 5 PhD offers 3 from Johns Hopkins, Stanford and UoCambridge!
I hope this motivates someone to keep pushing! #Perseverance
Thank you all for the congratulatory messages! I did not expect this much traction from my post! I am glad that I was able to inspire people.
As has been indicated in some of the comments, perseverance without growth only leads to stagnation. A lot happened in those two years!1/2
Speaking with them made me realize that the major flaw in my previous application might have been my lack of RELEVANT research experience.
My training at @JohnsHopkinsMMI was life changing and provided me with the needed research experience in a supportive environment.
