Can you please recommend according to AMBI/MOD/SAFE.. As I can only apply to 6-7 out of that list.. Also if any other university is in your view, then kindly let me know... Thanks...

@ emmm: Actually I thought to retake the exam, but as the deadlines for applying to universities are very close and other college exams are also there, so till December 15 I will not be able to do so. Kindly suggest me what shall I do?
