- Graduate courses are not so much relevant to the corporate or tech industry except for 1-3 courses.
- Competition for TA and RA is more right now compared to 2 years in the past.
- More Indians and hence more competition.
Experience of a life time, I have got more funding support than I have expected and overall experience was great.
