Chances for MSc AI at BTU Cottbus?

Hey everyone, I’ve applied to MSc AI at BTU Cottbus. I have a converted German GPA of 1.2 and IELTS 8.0.

The website doesn’t mention any strict cutoff or ECTS requirements, so I’m a bit confused about my chances — I have a strong CS background with DSA and good AI/ML exposure, along with a decent amount of math.

Along with that, I have a 2 years of work experience as a data engineer. Any insights?

Help needed for TU Dresden MSc. Data Science

Hey, so I have applied to TU Dresden via uni assist and there is a major issue that could mess up everything!

I first the gave the aptitude assessment and filled in everything but my dumbass didn’t mention the section where it asked for “Uni assist application number” on TU Dresden aptitude test

But I do have mentioned my assessment ID and everything including the submission mail confirmation on uni assist application.

Is there anything that should be done on my end? Or will uni assist correct my dumbass mistake?

Please note that I have used same email for uni assist and tu dresden assessment.
