Don't worry! The offer of your destiny is coming! Although the ranking of school is very important, the success of your Ph.D life more depends on your advisor, the project you are going to do, and yourself. I heard stories of older students from my college. They went to major ranking top1 program but assigned to junior professors to do research on very new and high risk projects. They could not graduate because the experiments never gave positive results. I also have friends whose Ph.D advisor has such a big name. Then the professor never has time to give instruction to students and students just got totally lost and waisted a lot of time. Sometimes I feel finding a good advisor and a good project is no easier than finding your soul mate, it really needs a match! This is just my experience, and I am in Engineering school but not business school ![](/static/legacy-emoticon/Dvbbs/em04.gif) |
