chance to get into top EE programs

<p>Thanks for viewing my thread!
I'm currently a senior student at Rice University majored in EE. My gpa is 3.95 and is a member of several honor societies such as tau beta pi etc. I've also received a scholarship from Rice and have researches and projects experiences (no paper published though). Lor are written by professors at Rice with whom I did project or researches.(dont think my lor would be very strong though) Could you please chance me ? I don't want to end up going no where lol. Thanks!</p>

MIT phd

UC Berkeley ms
UIUC ms
Caltech ms

<p>Why not? (10 char)</p>

<p>Two of the professors are not that close to me. I just did a project and took some classes from them. The other professor should be much more familiar with me since I did research with him and also took classes from him. What worries me is that I don’t have any publications, and top schools are looking for students with great research potential. Any ideas? Thank you!</p>
