<t>I think that the TOEFL test is something you just have to pass (I mean a decent score) and then you are fine. A good TOEFL won't get you in, a really bad one could keep you out. The Verbal GRE score is not very relevant. Most international students (in my class) didn't do well on that part (compa...

On the other hand, I haven't received an acceptance/rejection letter from them (I applied mid December).Anyway, I accepted the offer from the U of...

The open house day is Thursday, April 3. I guess I won't make it
