Hey....................... Got admit letter from USC for Masters in CS-Fall 2004!!! (the wait was so boring;)) [bounce][bounce][bounce]

No idea about that....i am also wondering if I get 5.5 it will be around 277 or so....my scores are 227-283 RECOS, SOP...a lot of work to do.... Good luck on your apps too!!!

Hey Congrats Wood..... Great score! Countdown is ending soon....one more to go...All the best for that....!!

I know you will get a greatttt score!!! All the best!

Thanks a lot Vinay! Am heading towards SOP,recoz and other stuff now... When is your GRE and TOEFL?

Psyoutlaw Thats true! I don't have any problems in taking subject test. Its just that the deadlines are near and I haven't registered for subject test. I don't think there's enough time left for me to register now,prepare and then wait for applying.... Rather, I would try out without subject test! Lets see what happens....

Hey Vinay... Many top schools say Subject GRE is preferred....So is there any chance of getting admitted in any of these without subject GRE (with 1410+5.0 in GRE and 227-283 in TOEFL and a good academic preformance)?? I have 2 years work experience in Software Industry but my back ground is Electrical Engineering.

Anyway,Thanks ! NO, Am not taking subject GRE! Hope your preparation is going well for the subject test! All the best! MS

Thanks a lot, Wood! After seeing my score(lower limit), I wasn't sure how I did. Am in the process of preparing for Apping. Any clues about Statement of Purpose and Letters of Recommendations? Any book you suggest?

Hey guys, Just took TOEFL today. Scores are .. Listening:28:shy: Structure:13-30:p Reading: 27[|)] Essay was pretty easy....I think I did good in that... Is this score good enough? Thanks.

ITS URGENT......TOEFL TOMORROW!!! I have my TOEFL test tomorrow. I would highly appreciate if someone can look at this essay and suggest some quick tips to improve....SOME DO'S and DON'Ts....please!!! Being away from home for a long time requires lot of packing and planning. Given a choice to take one additional item apart from clothes and personal care, I would love to take my camera along with me. My camera has always been an important part of my journeys for various reasons. Firstly, while enjoying my trip away from home, I would like to capture all the beautiful sceneries and moments I experience. Later in my life, all these pictures taken would remind me of this wonderful trip and the memories will be retained for my future generations to cherish. For example, recently I visited Grand Canyon National Park. With the help of my camera I could capture the wonderful sceneries and now my friends are amazed to see the beauty of the place through the photographs. Secondly, I am an enthusiastic photography fan. Various blends of colors in the sky during sunrise and sunset, the setup of an altogether different environment from my own, unusual activities encountered in the trip always inspire me to sieze them in my camera and take them along with me. Considering the long duration of the trip, I guess I would have lots of things to take pictures of. Also, my camera would let me document all the information and details about the places I visit which later on I can send to my relatives and friends to enjoy. Seeing the visuals they can easily make out what all I did and saw during my trip and understand better whatever I narrate to them. I would say that my camera would be a perfect companion for my trip because it would make my trip all the more wonderful, informative and memorable on my return.

Congrats Vinay![banana][banana]

Hi Munni, I am taking TOEFL on Oct 1. When is urs?How r you preparing for that?

Hey Psyoutlaw... U really seem to be very nice and helpful person!! I am in the process for applying for Masters in CS for fall 2004. I see many people here talk about emailing profs and all. Could u tell me what is it all about? What do they contact the profs for, before admission? How do you know which profs to write to and what all to write? Do the profs entertain such emails?? I am also working on SOPs and Recos. U suggested a book "Graduate Admissions Esays," by Donald Asher. I will definitely get this book. Could you forward some sample SOPs u have? That would be great help to start off with. Thanks, MS
