nstat52884 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Hi all, I am preparing my application for a PhD in Computer and Information Sciences. I have completed my Masters in Predictive Analytics from the same school with a 3.85 GPA and my undergrad was from a different school in Statistics with a 3.4 GPA. Although I have not done any academic research, I have completed research in industry. Unfortunately though due the confidentiality of the research, I am not able to publish. I do have very strong letters of recommendation as well as a strong SoP. My GRE was a 156 in Verbal with a 163 in Quantitative Reasoning. What are my odds for admissions?

nstat52884 Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 I have had multiple professions review it saying the writing and reasons are very strong. One of those who reviewed it has their PhD in Human Resource Management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite sure that you are enough for the top world class schools But enough to get in a decent school. Did you apply this year? If so good luck for both of us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
