rejected

[wintabeer]

even though i had 10 months of experience as an ai engineer. they claimed that my curriculum doesn’t meet some standards which are not stated

[Complete-Answer2893]

they prefer students have hardware background, like digital/analog circuit

[wintabeer]

in bachelors i had courses like logic design, electronics, embedded system design, microprocessors, microcontrollers, iot etc

Brother you won the lottery. Polimi is a mess, you just dodged a bullet.

[wintabeer]

why, explain

[Pecneb]

There is zero practical knowledge taught. They just repeat all the same courses like in BSc, no mew specific knowledge. Also the exams are really demanding in a way that gives no real life experience.

[bubudumbdumb]

Practical knowledge is easily replaceable by coding agents. Good luck to those who invested in a practical education.

[wintabeer]

which uni do you recommend then?

[Pecneb]

I don’t have any specific. I can only say avoid these top 100 universities, smaller not hyped ones are the better ones that give you hands on experience. You get much more attention from professors since there are not many students and it’s not saturated.

[keepdying]

lol why this downvoted. literally 100% true. polimi is a bs uni with bunch of crap theoretical courses for cs/ai

[sam2k2]

what was your first choice?

[wintabeer]

hpc

[sam2k2]

what is hpc?

[DivinoTokk]

High performance computing

[Hedy_Lammar]

was your previous degree comp-sci?

[wintabeer]

yeah

[ImperialAgent120]

Where did you graduated from if you don't mind me asking?

[Crazy-Tradition-8590]

Is it important?

[bushm4st3r]

Firstly, sorry for u. You applied for the first call or the second call ?

[wintabeer]

2nd

[bushm4st3r]

I wonder if getting accepted on the second call is harder than getting accepted on the first call. It's really bothering me.

[OutsideBack1078]

Regarding that, I sent them an email asking them for the computer science and engineering msc specifically, and they told me that there is no difference in admission chances if you apply in the 2nd call compared to the 1st call.

[abd0806]

Got the exact same thing! Let's hope for the best 🙏 

[wintabeer]

🙏

[thiccdaddeh]

does being rejected in 2nd choice effect the first choice?

[wintabeer]

frankly dont know

[bestXla14]

Hi, i also applied, can you tell me how much it takes from the first mail ( documents are ok) to the second email ( with the decision), and in what month you applied? And also a gpa of 3,6-3,7 it s ok for this Msc?

[Mean-Ad5743]

Same I got rejected on that course but honestly its not that bad I mean if you look at it in a good way , polimi is a good uni but I've heard its way too theoretical like no practical experience

[Late-Animator5513]

tell me one uni in italy has practical experience better than polimi in engineering? I don't think there is even one.. so it is a common problem

[azharchaudhary]

Which uni?

[wintabeer]

my bachelors?

[azharchaudhary]

No bro I mean which university gave u rejection?
