M.S. Aerospace/Astronautics HELP

<p>Hi folks,</p>

<p>I am expecting GRE score of 1100-1200. (700 Quantitative and 500 Verbal).</p>

<p>GPA is 3.5. </p>

<p>MY paper has been selected in International conference and I am going to attend conference soon. </p>

<p>I have very good relations with my professors and other research mentors. So I will be having great Reco. letters. </p>

<p>My question is that What are my chances to get into the schools mentioned below for M.S. in AEROSPACE ?</p>

<ol>
<li>Purdue </li>
<li>Stanford</li>
<li>Texas A&M</li>
<li>Georgia tech</li>
<li>Cornell</li>
</ol>

<p>Please please HELP because I have to give the name of school at GRE test so that I can send score there.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I’m confused. Shouldn’t you be sending your scores to every school that you apply to?</p>

<p>After you give your GRE. You can send scores to 4 Colleges so I am deciding what colleges I have more chance so I give those school names. You can send score to all colleges but I would like to know what is my chance…</p>

<p>I don’t know where you went to school, but 700 on the quantitative GRE scores is a red flag for the top schools in engineering. Generally, they want a perfect score on that section. I would say Cornell and especially Stanford are unlikely. I have a vague recollection that Georgia Tech is top 5 in aerospace; if that is true, then that is unlikely too. However, the average GRE scores for schools are posted. For engineering, grades are the most important thing and you have a solid GPA (probably not good enough for Stanford though). I didn’t go to grad school for engineering, so I cannot tell you in any more detail. </p>

<p>I would guess that you would get into a few on your list at least. Your professors could tell you best. Engineering grad school admissions are generally pretty predictable. Also, ask around and find out what results are typical for people from your school and major with your GPA and quantitative GRE score. I don’t think they care too much about the verbal.</p>

<p>By the way, I don’t know what it means to be “selected for an international conference” or how selective that is, so my comments may underestimate your ability. </p>

<p>If you are international, the language issue may have hurt your quantitative score. However, internationals have a tougher time to get into U.S. schools regardless.</p>

Thanks for your reply. I am trying to improve the quant scores so that I can get 750+. This here is only estimation I made from the practice tests.</p>

<p>To be selected for an international conference means , I will get a chance to give presentation in the conference and My Research paper will be published in their journal.</p>
