formatting page numbers!!! help!
S

hi Alpacalover
I also use MSOffice for Mac (2008), I haven't experienced this problem.

Its very hard to offer any help especially if we cannot see the document infront of us (!) so cannot fix it on the spot :-)
Office on Mac is easier (and faster) a lot of times but on Windows, it seems to be more flexible (like you can change page layout on the same document), cannot do this on a mac (or I don't know how).

My suggestion to you is to take the word doc file to a windows computer, fix the page numbers from there
and then continue on the mac. If the MSOFfice on the pc is not the latest one, it will still work when you use it on your mac later.

happy satchi


Brown or Harvard?
S

Wow! Congratulations on these fantastic achievements!!!

For me a fellowship is a good thing to have, it allows us to concentrate on our phd and not worry about how we're going to pay rent, how much money we have left in our wallet etc. I would take that as a HIGH priority.

"Kind and friendly" is everywhere, I think you might also find this in Harvard.

Satchi's answer for now: Harvard.

hi Rahman
well done on your academic progress!!!
I think with your >3.5 cgpa and achievement, you will be able to get somewhere!!!
Have you looked into scholarships from your own government? I have seen Malaysian students being generously funded, their whole families come along and everybody is happy. Some even stay longer than usual.
I think you have a high advantage!

There should be some kind of Academic Training Programme sponsored by your government. ASK around. If you go on this, when you finish, you already have an academic post waiting for you. I think its wonderful. If this option if available for you (to apply) from home, then home is a good place to start looking.

Alternatively you can put yourself on the mailing lists of scholarship websites.
And then go from there, check the ones you are interested in.

Japan is also a very good place for PHD scholarships but from what I heard, it is quite difficult and then again I also heard that a Japanese phd is highly valued in your country.

I would say, it takes from 6 months to 1 year to make your application etc. For me, it was less than 6 months. But I was lucky.

You have plenty of time and bright prospects!!! best of luck
happy satchi

How long would you spend writing an abstract for a conference?
S

oh ya. References in the abstract depends on which journal or the author instructions.
