hi people:

Still, work on my GRE, which I don't think I can get any better. I am applying to GSD, Yale, Berkley this year. I worked very hard on my portfolio. here is the link:

Looks good but you may wan to add a 'strong' safety school just in case you do no get into the above programs which admit about 7-19%.

Is it typical to put a resume in a portfolio for a school now?

Agreed with Beepbeep. Seems pretty solid on first glance, but there is still a reasonable chance you don't get admitted into any of those three schools. And if you are taking out loans you might get a better deal...

Thank you Beepbeep and natematt, I will apply Cornell, UPenn, and CMU as well. I have already known that I will get in CMU and UPen since I am in Univeristy of Pittsburgh, and the directors really want our students. One of my committees is UPenn professor. Still, try to get in the top schools. 

I got few fellowships and honor defense for my research project and teaching assistant for twice. One of my recommenders is GSD alumnus. I don't know any of this helps. And most importantly, my GRE is really bad, which I am really worried about. it is even not close to the average. 

I am not worried to0much about the tuition. If I get some schlorship, which is great, but if I don't, if is fine, I didn't see if it will effect the application decision. I thought we will apply for the scholarship after we submit our application. 

Any other suggestions? go back to study my GRE
