Hi,
Yes i was referring to the Masters program.
So guys u think i should go ahead with CMU.
Well no i am not from BIT or IIT. But i am heavily banking on TAMU. All my other colleges are pretty much safe ones.
Moneywise...I find CMU expensive.Its extortion practically. But whats the harm in applying. We'll see about the money later.
INI doesn't look that impressive. And ofcourse its tooooo expensive.
Hey any tips for the SOP and recos. I have a year's experiience of working in a telecomm firm (for BT Plc projects domain being .net , pl/sql and java..yes i have done it all!!!). You think getting one reco from a boss is a good thing. However TAMU clearly states that reco from boss will not carry as much weightage as from a prof...Stuck there..please advise...
Thanks guys..
