Can anyone help me? -
Hi everyone, I graduated from National University of Singapore this June. I was studying in the Engineering Science Program. Overall: I got a second-upper class, which corresponds to a GPA of roughly 4.4 on a 5.0 scale. and I had 2 interns in previous years and published a paper this year. I haven't taken GRE yet, but will soon get it done, hopefully I can get 326+ for the verbal and quant parts, and 4.5 for the writing. My GPA is not strong (below 4.5 on 5.0 scale), and in the second last semester my GPA was accidentally below 4.0/5.0, but in the last semester, I got into the dean's list (although this was the only time I got that). Currently I have only chosen 3 schools in the US: MIT, Stanford and UCBerkeley. I will be applying to their Material Science and Engineering programs for MS degree. Based on previous year's results and your experience and knowledge, what are my chances of getting in any of these 3 schools? Thanks!
