Hi again,
As I am making my decisions to which programs to go, I am leaning more towards accepting a Master's at this point and then apply to top PhDs afterwards (I am targeting a top PhD. but too late for apps & not the best UGPA). My question is, during master's program, I am aiming to make myself a better candidate for the PhD programs. Other than GPA, how does publishing usually work in a master's program? Or how do I at least get to be an author in some pubs?
If I go for the Master's Plan:
-Get good GPA
-Full time Research lab job
-Get on some Pubs
It would be greatly appreciated for only those who went through a master's route to their PhD to answer this question as being relevant to such an experience is a lot helpful. Thanks!
