Hi everyone! Sorry to bump this old thread... But I think I have a very relevant question.
I am a ECE graduate from Singapore, with 2nd upper honours from Nanyang Technological University (NTU, also in Singapore)
I am very interested in applying for MSIN at INI, CMU too, but I am wondering about my chances.
Can anyone give me an idea how likely I will be accepted?
My information:
Plusses
I had been working for about 1.5 years.
I have a pretty rich work experience to write about.
I have excellent records for my extra-cirriculum activities
I will likely get 3 very good recommendation letters from my employers.
Minuses
My official transcript isn't good though.
My technical modules averages to about A-, but my non-technical modules are horrible, probably a B-/C+.
My Final Year Project is only a B+ and 2 of my modules are recorded as fail (because I forgot to drop them, there is a validity date for that )
Those 2 modules are non-relevant to my ECE degree though.
