WILL HAVING A PUBLICATION IN SCIENCE AT BACHELOR LEVEL HELP ME GET TO MIT?

admin — Sun, 02 May 2010 13:23:17 +0000

IAM A BTECH GRAD JUST PASSING. MY FINAL YEAR PROJECT MAY JUST GET ME A PUBLICATION IN JOURNAL IN NANOTECHNOLOGY BIOLOGY SIDE MAY BE IMPACT FACTOR 1 OR 2. HOW WILL THIS IMPACT MY APPLICATION TO MIT. IAM FRM JNTU UNIV IN INDIA.

Everyone applying to MIT in advanced fields will have published at least a couple of things somewhere along the line. At a school like MIT they look at everything, your grades, your research and volunteer hours in the field, your references, as well as your GRE scores, which will have to be very, very high. So your publication may or may not help you, if you do poorly on the GRE they will be of no use. But if you have perfect grades, a few hundred volunteer hours in a lab or related field, etc, it may give you a boost.

Looking for reputable Literary Journals that focus on Science Fiction shorts.?

admin — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 13:19:24 +0000

I have written a science fiction story that I’m convinced is of a quality worthy of professional publication. I know of a great number of well-read lit journals, and I subscribe to five or so of them. None are science fiction-oriented, however. What I’m looking for is printed literary journals (no online publications please) that (at best) focus exclusively on sci-fi, or (at the least) accept sci-fi shorts submissions.
Thank you.

I wouldn’t limit myself to the Big Three (Analog, The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, and Asimov’s). There are plenty of reputable online publications that are well-respected and will pay you even more per word than those guys do, and you can submit to them electronically (the Big Three require paper subs). Check Duotrope’s Digest for publications and their guidelines. You can sort out the online publications, and sort for the amount of payment, if you want.

New Type USA Magazine Anime Trailers (2/2)

I OWN NOTHING! REPEAT I OWN N-O-T-H-I-N-G!
Newtype (ニュータイプ Nyūtaipu?) is a popular monthly magazine publication originating from Japan, covering anime and manga (and to a lesser extent, tokusatsu, Japanese science fiction and video games). It was launched by publishing company Kadokawa Shoten on March 8, 1985 with its April issue, and has since seen regular release on the 10th of every month in its home country. An English version has since been published, called Newtype USA; a version of Newtype is also published in Korea. Spin-off publications of Newtype also exist in Japan, such as Newtype Hero/Newtype the Live (which are dedicated to tokusatsu) and NewWORDS (which is geared toward a more mature adult market), as well as numerous limited-run versions (such as Clamp Newtype).
The name of the magazine comes from the “Newtypes” in the Universal Century timeline of the Gundam series, specifically Mobile Suit Gundam (1979) and its sequel Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam (1985). Newtype magazine launched a week after Zeta Gundam began airing on March 2, 1985.
The North American counterpart of the magazine ceased publication after their February 2008 volume release.
Newtype USA included both translated Japanese content and original U.S. material. Content included anime, manga, music, game, toy and model reviews, director interviews, artist profiles, and regular columns by industry experts, tastemakers and deep-cover insiders. Newtype USA also included bonus content, such as posters, postcards, a centerfold spread, serialized manga, and a DVD insert. Newtype USA was published by A.D. Vision, parent company of the anime distributor ADV Films and manga publisher ADV Manga, but the magazine still featured content and promotional material from properties distributed by competing publishers. The first Newtype USA issue was published in November, 2002.
Newtype USA ended publication in 2008 after the February 2008 issue was published [1] – it was soon replaced with another magazine, PiQ; however, that magazine ceased after four issues.

Fossils of Human Ancestors Discovered

Two well-preserved skeletons of a human ancestor never before seen have been discovered in South Africa by a team that includes a Texas A&M University anthropologist.

The discovery is outlined in two papers in the April 9 edition of Science Magazine, the official publication of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). “Australopithecus sediba: A New Species of Homo-like Australopith from South Africa,” is the cover story of the journal.

can you give me some books about the sea,maybe a science book?

admin — Tue, 20 Apr 2010 12:06:46 +0000

please give the authors and the place and date of publication..thanks

You can’t go wrong with Rachel Carson’s The Sea Around Us. It came out in 1951 but remains a classic. Place of publication will depend on the edition. If you’d give more parameters, you’ll get better answers.
