In this video we dive into how I prepared for my second ROUND of PhD applications, after not doing so well in the first round! We cover all the things that I did to try to improve my application for the next round of graduate students and some actionable tips that really helped me land my PhD!
I remember finding it super tricky to write a good PhD application that stands out so these are just some of the things that I tried that were a little bit 'different' when it comes to getting more research experience for the application.

I got 15 rejections this time. Will keep on applying even if it takes 5 years to find one.

I’m in a similar boat, I’m quite impressed by your kind of resilience. How do you find yourself keeping your head up vs. feeling defeated after doing all you can?

@@royale9985 My view is like this: Life is only for once and I want to understand astronomy. And if I don't try hard now, I will regret it in future. And I have found out that things eventually come to us if we keep on working for them. It may take a little longer than others.

Our STEM PhD program expects all applicants to have at least a year of research experience. None of the suggestions you mentioned would make a difference. It cost $500k for a stipend and tuition and on top of that the cost of their research program. Just because you like reading research or reviewing research articles does not show you have the potential to do research. Are you suggesting that the vet school you are attending does not allow students to do research. If that is the case then they are hindering the progress of the field of veterinary medicine. In the vet and MD programs I know a large percentage of the admitted students did research as undergraduates. There are research opportunities for veterans students and the top schools like Cornell have a DVM/PhD program.
