Queries -
  • First Impression on the Scores?
  • Does TOEFL require preparation, I cannot apply until then, so thinking to give it ASAP (have a IT company to join after 10 days, would be instigated in a training environment for 6 months, would have less time to prepare then)
  • Should I prepare for 1(or maybe 2) more month and complete Barrons 3500 WL and give GRE again (could be tedious, I may not have much time after I join)?
  • Can I expect Financial Aid from these Universities (or any other if you may suggest so, restraining to US is not a requirement)?
    • Any Other Suggestion?
