Need Help with Profile Evaluation | 2015 MS Admissions


Tush

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'm an Indian Student and gave my GRE last week

My scores are

Quant : 165

Verbal : 159

Total : 324

AWA :    Yet to receive

TOEFL : Due in 15 days

 

I've worked in the Analytics Industry for more than 30 months now. I'm also SAS certified. 

GPA is slightly on the lower side (2.7/4)

 

Am planning to apply for courses around MS in Business Analytics or Operations Research . Looking at the following colleges

 

1. CMU Heinz School Of Business MISM with concentration on BIDA (Business Intelligence & Data Analysis)

2. Columbia MS in Operations Research with concentration on Analytics

3. UIUC MS in Statistics with concentration on Analytics

4. NCSU MS in Analytics

 

I primarily need advice on 4 things :

1. Do I give GRE again to try and get 170 in QUant?

2. What are the other Tier-I colleges I should be aiming at?

3. Given my work experience, will these colleges give more importance to the work ex. compared to my GPA?

4. Do you think I have a fair chance in any of the above colleges?

 

Thanks for the help :)
