Hi,

I have posted the same message at the "Engineering" forum, but no reply. Actually I think it is suitable for "CS" group.

Here is my profile, I am looking for a PhD position -

Bachelors (Computer Science) : GPA 3.83/4.00 (From Bangladesh)

Masters by Research (Computer Science) : University of Sydney, 90%

Scholarships : Australian Leadership Award (2007), International Postgraduate Research Scholarship (IPRS - 2010)

Research: CLOUDS Lab at Melbourne for 2 years.

Publications: 2 ACM, 3 IEEE Conferences (1 nominated for best student paper award), 1 Wiey-Blackwell Journal

Conferences are top tiers in my research field.

GRE: Verbal 550, Quant 780, AWA 4.0

I have couple of national level awards and nominations.

I am the first author in all papers.

is there any chance for me to top schools like MIT, Berkley, UIUC, UCLA ??

please advice, thanks in advance.

I think you have a great shot at top schools. Your research experience is what really counts for the very top schools and you have first author papers at the top conferences in your field, so you really have good chances. Keep in mind that applying to the very top schools is still a crap shoot since there are so many well qualified applicants, but you seem to have the kind of profile that they are looking for. Best of luck!
