Hey everyone
I am applying for Environ Engineering PhD program for fall 2010 and I would like some advices for schools. Sorry I can't type in Chinese now. I got my BA degree in environmental science (3.1/4) in China and a master degree (3.6/4) in a US school (ranked maybe around 40). My GRE scores are 1370+5.0. Although I was on RA while I was getting my master degree, my research is not related to water treatment, which is what I really want to do. I have searched for some schools with professors doing research on water and wastewater treatment and ended up with 10 schools. Now I just realized that those schools are all 'good' schools and I am a little bit afriad of getting all 10 rejections so I am trying to get some 'safe' schools. So here are my school list, please share any advices! Thanks.
