just getting started on my application. This was awesome!

Thank you for sharing your valuable experience with us, I have a question: Are all MIT PhD students supported by full funds?

Please share some cold emailing tips

im blessed to have found your youtube page

Hi

About losing sensitivity to caffeine, I've heard nicotine works well if you keep it to 1mg, do you have any thoughts about that?

super cool

Your LinkedIn I'd please

amazing!! i'm still a senior in high school but... hope this can be me someday:) keep it up❤

Well done on the “day in the life” style video! Btw, caff pills are not the answer though. I might suggest a healthier option.. maybe sliced oranges or other fruit?

Thanks for sharing. I hope I could have know and plan as you did when I applied, I realize why it was hard for me to get in even one program though I was lucky. Didn’t get in eecs but now a course 1 phd, maybe can meet you one day. Ps the sop link is super helpful

Is it typical to contact the professors prior to application?

Looks like a cool place !

what school do you go to mit school of engineering or what mit school

I am a PhD student in computer science. I've only had problems, I'm already tired of this shit. Nothing, absolutely nothing works for me. My main advisor is in another country because he left academia and now works in the industry, all meetings are by zoom. I've been there for two and a half years and I have nothing to publish, in one year I have like 100 nightmares. I work in an empty lab, it's always been that way since it started. I can't talk to my parents or siblings about this, they don't even know what a PhD is, my parents only have elementary education, they always had problems and got divorced, my close family doesn't understand what a PhD is either, for them, the Success is measured in the amount of land, houses and cars that a person accumulates. I have not made friends in graduate school because I worked in empty laboratories. All this has caused me to have terrible self-esteem, I have distanced myself from my family because I am in a bad mood and I don't want to be rude to them. I no longer enjoy anything, I don't care about everything, I no longer practice my hobbies because of the sadness of not getting results. I feel incompetent, I feel like human garbage. I am extremely discouraged, it seems that the PhD has awakened the worst version of me. Sometimes, I would like to quit and go to work at a physically demanding job, at least, at the end of my work day, I will surely have made a little progress: "today, as a waiter, I waited on 10 tables", "today, as a farm worker, I gathered corn from 4 grooves", "today, as a dishwasher, I washed 5 large containers of dirty dishes", "today, as a hand laborer, I carried 1000 bricks to the construction site", all this would be more satisfying than my doctorate, where I have months doing the same experiments and no progress at all. I no longer have feelings of joy or sadness, I no longer feel like I am a person, I am "something" that comes, sleeps and defecates, I have no desires or optimism in the future, I sleep poorly, sometimes I even feel dizzy and tingling in my body. head for sleeping so badly... if they kicked me out of the graduate program, I wouldn't care. My life is totally miserable.

I love this video! I'm thinking about applying but I'm still debating if research is right for me. I'm doing a summer internship at a lab rn so let's see how this goes!

May I know how old are u doin PhD?

I got inerview invites, do you think I should mail them before the interview?

Hey Eugenie, I'm trying to apply to MIT but sckeptical aout what area of Interest to pick. I want to learn cybersecurity , what would be better for me?

Thanks for sharing and good luck !! :)

A life ill prolly never live, good video tho

This schedule is moderately easier than mine was as an electrical engineering undergrad at Texas... my last year, I was in the lab six days a week, with working hrs from 0700 to 2100. Circuits, math, soldering/desoldering, math, prototyping, math, and homework. An EE grad turned math PhD candidate I knew said that her time as an EE student was the busiest, hardest time of her life. Her work as a PhD was more complicated, but the workload wasn't anywhere near as bad.

If you decide to do the interview and the professor says that they think you are a good fit, does the professor require you to commit bindingly? (Would it be viewed negatively by the department (other professors) if you don't choose that professor?)

Your SoP is soooo looong.

Hopeful you are great girl in this earrh

I like this day in the life.

do post more!

3:27 I would love to see your interview tips and tricks and how you answered the questions if you ever intend to make a video of that. Your videos are always quite substantive and helpful. Cheers! :)

Me too!!! I could sleep after 5am 😂😂.... my friend said that I'm living like a 60 years old 😅

You are too precious! I am finishing my BS in CS and I am looking at grad school for next year. I finally found what makes me happy in regards to research. Finally… FINALLY… I know what to write on my SOP. Hallelujah 🙌

no one mentions it so I will: you are really pretty!

Thank for the video! helpful

love your content! would love more info about your PhD studies

Hi! Thank you for the video, it's amazing! I'm a Master student studying Software engineering Don't u mind if I contact u to ask about having Phd at MIT ? :D

wish i could do a phd at mit!

Thank you so much Eugenie for the sincere sharing about your experience and thoughts!! It is truly inspiring!!!

Do you need to pay for a PhD in USA? Here in Belgium, you get paid to do it

I have never seen MIT's CS job recruiter cooperate with UCLA's electrical and computer engineer (ECE) for more credential boost. During my childhood, I was chosen as a future UC Berkeley's master for any degree at UC Berkeley's program because the elementary school teacher found the university very fitting for us. At the moment, I am collecting credentials so that the previous masters do the restoration of communication. Each university based on the kid's family background, education, and communication that they had not worked before in companies. In the past history, wolf companies like Wolf of Wall Street had been harming children growing into adults not able to get their bachelor's degrees from UC Berkeley that they were taken away from far away places to get their degrees or abandon school.

Hi Eugenie. I relate with you so much. Hopefully i get masters and then start pursue PHD too. Keep posting about your experience and interests . All The BEST!!!!!!

Two protein bars for dinner???????? you won't survive dude. Eat!!!!

I followed the exact same process to get ERASMUS scholarship. I wish I had more researh exposure like you, during my undergrad. Great Video.❤❤❤

Can I get your email address please?

puff:) even ı m so tired

Greetings from Sao Jose do Rio Preto, Sao Paulo State, Brazil. #probability #reader #people

Top video !!!! Vídeo top!!!

Hi Eugenie, thank you for sharing your experiences! I am currently a CS undergrad considering applying straight to a phd program, and your advice definitely inspires me to do the same thing. I look forward to seeing you continuing doing amazing works!

Looks like a really realistic and therefore original day in the life video !! Sad you're not talking though

Thank you.

very nice

That is motivational to me. Peace.i wish y best .
