Hey guys, here is a bit about my profile -
my_qualifications:
BE from tier 3 college -7.41 CGPA (ECE)
Currently working in an MNC as a Data Engineer with 1.5 YOE at this moment. No gaps in profile anywhere.
Class X - 81%
Class XII - 86%
GRE - 326 (170Q, 156V)
Which universities should I shortlist? I have done my own research and come up with these -
Georgie Tech
Uwash Seattle
UT Austin
UMD College Park
North Carolina State University
Stony Brook University
Northeastern University
UT Dallas
San Jose State University
I am mainly interested in MSCS or MSAI/ML programs. Kindly let me know if the ones I have shortlisted are good and realistic for me. If there are any you would recommend I add to or remove from the list. I also considered TU Munich and ETH Zurich (far out of my league given my CGPA, I know), but I am a bit skeptical about EU. I think communication is an essential part of any job and even if I study enough to meet the required thresholds I won’t have the command or fluency in German which I do I English.
Also let me know if, for my profile, trying for a switch in India itself would be a better choice.
