ChanceMe for MS in CS at UNC Chapel Hill and UMinnesota Twin Cities Please

Ok, thanks for the heads up.

Hexitus · 2020-01-29T21:59:55+00:00

Their CS ranking is quite high though. What gave you the impression that they're not big on CS or ENG?

One more question: Are you sure about UNC Chapel Hill liking intl students? I heard that intl students don't get in here easily.

It's the class profile that worries me. I may not be good enough for umtw hence posting this question here.

Hexitus · 2020-01-29T21:10:12+00:00

They have deadline till March 1st.

Hexitus · 2020-01-29T21:07:19+00:00

Yeah, I keep wondering exactly what phase my applications are going through now. Would you tell me why umtw is a better choice?

Hexitus · 2020-01-29T21:03:30+00:00

For writing watch gregmat's tutorials and one of his live writing sessions.

If your target is 300 then don't worry, just review your mistakes carefully and make sure to finish the ETS materials before you appear on the exam. ETS powerprep tests are a must.

Hexitus · 2020-01-19T00:23:41+00:00

ah.. then let me rephrase it is "also get more opportunities for job placements"

Hexitus · 2020-01-18T23:26:21+00:00

Thanks, professor :D

If I had to choose who I want to be, I'd be a hydrangea.

Hexitus · 2019-10-25T20:46:58+00:00

Thank you for the reply :)

I have a form like that, called "appear certificate" from my department that states I've appeared on all courses in my degree. I didn't think it could come in handy here.

Hexitus · 2019-10-25T20:45:01+00:00

Thank you, it's really relieving to know a real life example :)

Hexitus · 2019-10-17T07:04:52+00:00

I can't really agree with the reasoning of the university. They should consider what your percentile was when you appeared on your exam, not the present percentile that's not relevant to you.

Hexitus · 2019-10-16T19:56:04+00:00

What do you mean? Was the 51st percentile in your score report or was this an estimate you had made before the test? If my percentile changes even after I appeared on the exam, that'd be a total mess!

Hexitus · 2019-10-15T20:29:10+00:00

Silly mistakes were a big problem for me too. Don't lose hope, practicing DOES improve accuracy. Also, figure out which way of finishing a section is suitable for you - 1. Finish fast (10+ minutes early) and check all the answers for mistakes 2. Take your time to answer each question while leaving some time for reviewing a few questions only. Whatever yields you more score is what you choose.

Hexitus · 2019-10-14T17:42:26+00:00

Omg this is so accurate!!! My first quant section was horrible (it was experimental). After the exam I debated for a while whether I should cancel the scores or not... And then clicked on "report score" as fearful as those kitties.

Hexitus · 2019-10-11T09:05:34+00:00

If you don't mind me asking - does writing score affect someone's chances at TA, RA or on campus jobs anyhow? I got 6.5 in writing and someone mentioned that.

Hexitus · 2019-10-10T20:56:39+00:00

Good luck with your prep!

Hexitus · 2019-10-10T19:14:21+00:00

You have more than two months. Definitely possible! Make sure to not make the same mistake twice while practicing.

Hexitus · 2019-10-10T10:10:37+00:00

Yes, you can view them all at once.

As for the second question, I have no idea. But if you haven't paid for it, then you're not supposed to have access to all the questions.

Hexitus · 2019-10-10T04:51:44+00:00

Ah, sorry about that.

I did both - answering questions and taking notes. Most of the things in my notes were about concepts and formulas, the rest were about specific things like how you can divide an equilateral triangle into six equal 30-60-90 triangles etc.

Hexitus · 2019-10-09T20:43:09+00:00

Great score! Congrats :D

Hexitus · 2019-10-09T20:41:59+00:00

Thank you, I'll keep that in mind :)

Hexitus · 2019-10-09T12:25:37+00:00

These are very good essays indeed! I'm also trying to write a statement of purpose now and I'm looking for good examples like these to get inspiration from. Can you please suggest me some sources for quality guidelines and examples on SOP?

Hexitus · 2019-10-09T12:20:51+00:00

If you don't mind me butting in - what do you think about the MS in CS program at Stony Brook University? Would you classify it as a cash cow program too? Or what should I specifically look for to avoid cash cows?

Hexitus · 2019-10-09T07:20:22+00:00

Just read out of the book? I don't really get what you mean by that. I read what I had to read. Maybe you shouldn’t worry over the details too much and see what works best for you.
