May 15 at 9:54 comment added user187068 No I don't but others didn't lie about the program. I explained the story in other comments.
May 15 at 8:03 comment added Sursula I am surprised that you are really asking why did they invite you for an interview and then reject you. This is the normal procedure for any job or position: you invite several candidates and chose the best fitting one(s), the others don't get the position. So you weren't the best fit obviously. Are you really that naive to think that invitation for an interview = guaranteed admission?

Duplicate of How are Ph.D. applications evaluated in the US, particularly for weak or borderline students? Am I likely to get into school X?
Apr 25 at 18:06 comment added user176372 Given clarifications, I'm inclined to think this is a duplicate of our standard graduate school apps question for the US. How are Ph.D. applications evaluated in the US, particularly for weak or borderline students? Am I likely to get into school X?

Apr 25 at 16:47 comment added user187068 I have yo say publishing in my field is hard. No one had publications. What catched my eyes is they graduated from top universities in USA and in the world. They had TA experience. I have got RA, so it's ok. Nothing else I can tell you really. Even from the publication I can tell that one of the students that graduated from Ivy league university that I applied to went to another university and working there, he got just 3 publications as a professor. And I have to say the universities I applied to just get a few number 3-5 and all full fund. No one can come there self funded.
