Are you in the online spreadsheet?

Not yet. My timeline is the same as famou12 so far.

Congrats!!! I have not heard a word from them yet. I am worried about my working experience as I only provided TA and RA.

Be patient, by the way, are you Xing Guo? This is Yusuf.

I also received my PER today . It seems they speed up our stream.

Guys,

I came across that post, it states that the FSW PhD stream is a fast-tracked.

What do you think?

Thanks,

I don't think so. Comparing to the other thread, PhD stream is much slower.

CONGRATSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What work experience proof did you provide? RA/TA only or something else?

Thanks.

Did you only have your TA and RA as your working experience?

Thanks.

I worked as a Programmer and Software Project Manager for 3 years (each). I started my PhD years after my Msc, not without having a harder time. Real world skills are a lot different from academics. I also do RA/TA work but I didn't put on my
application because I don't want to involve my supervisors in my PR, as we don't get along well.

Thanks for your reply, that was cool. let's wait and see what will happen to the rest of the applicant.

So maybe we should add another column in the spreadsheet about using TA/RA as working experience or not?

I strongly concur.
