Thank you first,
What is your advice ? While writing this, I am in a bad mood and emotion.
I must get to gradschool. Period!
 
Physics news on Phys.org
... What? I have no advice because you give no information. Why are you in a bad mood regarding grad school? What's your GPA? What school are you in? What field? Etc, etc, etc.
 
I'd say the optimal stategy would be to have good grades, good references and good research experience.
 
I'm assuming you've got bad grades and/or GRE score. My suggestion: apply to really crappy grad schools with good MS programs. That way you can have another shot at showing that you're good at taking courses, and you can transfer to a better grad school later.
