oops dat was my other profile because I was having problems with my original profile.. In case anyone is willing to help please lemme knw!

Send me your SOP, I'll send you mine,

Good to see CS aspirant. I'd be really glad but please note I am just a CS final year under grad student. And I am applying for MS. So I might not be qualified enough. But In case u r willing I'd be happy to evaluate. I'll eval urs and u eval mine? How about that?

Hey even I can do eval for u.. may be u 'll be interested in doing my eval? what say ;)deal?

The weekend is almost here But No one other than zenna has given me a critique. Esp after I refined the initial glitches. If any kind people are interested then I am willing to reciprocate the same. Thank you

Would anyone be interested in reading my SOP draft? Its in Q & A Format. SO its easier to read and spot errors. I have PMed to many who volunteered but I guess they are too busy at the moment because i have not received any comments yet. If anyone else is interested I will be very grateful

hey even I have written for CS in NW I think unless one sees ur entire SOP can't really make sense of what you are saying!

No comments yet?

hmm that seems like a good option. But still, I strongly feel they are trying to judge our abilities with C and C++ which the transcripts should do. As a CS student I've had to marry it all my UG life. Of course the projects done is quite less given the fact that acads are so hectic that there is nearly 0 time to do anything other than acads. So I wonder how to make myself look good! As a matter of fact my SOP has become my major concern. I ve done 3 drafts till now. I get only negative critics every time. It has been so demoralizing that I don't even feel like pulling myself up to the chair to write something new.

Thank u all so much.. I will send my SOP.. i was a little busy with tests over the weekend thanks again

can u demonstrate it by saying that some particular semester of the course got you interested and subsequent semesters kept you hooked? Or should we take a stand like this topic is so relevant to current living and hence it is very practical course? which one suits better? what are the other ways you can see these questions and answer them?

I am posting a few questions here that will have to be answered when one considers writing an SOP. I feel if we can draft nice answers for these questions the SOP process will become a lot more easier. Now if some of you can chip in providing a direction which these questions must take the entire freshers group will benefit a lot. 1) Why the University? -- what exactly should we write? can we write about the fact that the university is acclaimed, is cheap etc? 2) Why that branch? -- should we explain this by only providing our past experiences with the topic like projects seminars etc? or may be we could talk about authors of books who inspired us? 3) what are future goals and ambitions? -- should i be earnest and say attending this univ seals my job opportunities or should i be modest and say I want to expand my knowledge borders? 4) Which prof would we want to work with? -- may be I could say his work interests me? Can i be specific to say which particular publication or project and even go a step further to say I want to be a part of the project group. 5) Why should the university consider us for the candidature?-- should i say how i am intellectually and morally upright or may be i should say my grades are awesome till date? or may be i just say I have passion so consider me?

No one is interested :( I would appreciate any little help! Because I really have to send my applications over the weekend or so. Before that I would like to get the 2nd draft re-evaluated. I would really like some help even if the person is not of my branch and interests.

You can PM me. I am a CS student. But probably can have a look if you are OK wid it
