SINCE it's grad application season, I want to tell you the best advice I received about applying to grad school: choose an advisor, not a program (yes even in umbrella programs) ๐งต 1/x
Ultimately, your grad school experience usually depends MUCH MORE on your advisor than the program itself. Your advisor is your mentor and will have great influence on your career, when you graduate, your mental health, etc 2/x
