Good thread on what grad admissions committees look for at MIT. Caveats: different profs (and univs) look at different things, so this doesn't generalize beyond MIT. For example, I don't consider grades at all, especially for international applicants.https://twitter.com/fadeladib/status/1353020072885940224 …

I’m going to claim that these are proxies, though it is of course good advice. My own prior thread on this topic:https://twitter.com/isbellHFh/status/1304110091873013761 …
I like your thread. It’s more frank and honest. I do think the system is broken given the lack working-class PoC academics. But your thread kind of acknowledges that it’s not a perfect system. And the focus on “how like me are you?”. And the honesty is refreshing.
