The document captured every piece of information needed when reaching out to professors for potential supervision. The highlight for me is that it covered both advertised and unadvertised Master's/PhD positions. I found it really helpful. Thank you Rubin for creating this masterpiece.💯

The amount of effort Rubin put in is tremendous. I really found it helpful, especially the section-by-section points & instructions. The templates are clean and it helps that I could directly use it to make my CV! And the AI prompts work very well too as it helped me think about my work more deeply.
Rubin sir ensured that we made the best use of the 30 minutes, I had lot of clarity in my application process after the session. Highly recommend his sessions for anyone who is looking for some initial guidance while starting their study abroad journey
