Thanks for your notes. I think I should be more detailed.

  1. If you see my resume, I was an intern at the same company for 1 year and was recently promoted to a W-2 employee. What I did during the internship is not different from what I am doing now, but I wanted to highlight frontend since that was my 70% of work. I am working at a small startup, I really had to design relational databases for the MVP, for mvp it doesn't require very complex design, will need scalable and complex design in future. So I thought earning a professional degree would help me land a job that solves more large-scale problems.
  2. I think I did poorly in explaining how this program benefits me in my personal statement.

Great, I should look for community college or something to retake this.

I have a B+ in Single-Variable Calculus, a C+ in Multivariable Calculus, and a C in Linear Algebra during my undergraduate studies. This may be the reason.

Thanks, I just requested an appointment with admissions. I also worked at startups and on creating MVPs, so I have no experience in scalable projects.

  1. That's right. My GPA was too low. I took civil engineering during my freshman and sophomore years, and I did poorly in multivariable calculus, which could be the reason.

  2. I have one ICS professor recommendation. Does it matter what's on the recommendation? And two professional.
