After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools.
I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study.
I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests.
But gaining the information is much harder than US schools.
For your information,
I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia
- one SCI publication (first author) about engineering (cited 18 so far).
and M.S. in physics (GPA:4.0/4.0 but I know it's not that helpful) in Asia
- 3 publications (JHEP, IJMPA, EPJC) about holography (AdS/CFT) + 2 progressing projects (will be published before the admission process)
I think I can become a more competitive applicant in EU than US.
I mainly consider UK/France (for personal reason)/Germany. For the case of France, it is extremely difficult to find information.
Does anyone know how much these schools are competitive compared to US schools?
And please let me know if you know any other good schools in those countries.
I know it only includes top schools so I should include more institutions dealing with string theory, holography (AdS/CFT).
