<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>I am looking to apply to graduate schools for computer/electrical engineering. I am mainly wondering within what approximate range of universities (x through 100) in ranking (engineering) that I might stand a chance of getting into.</p>
<p>I have a 3.8 GPA, 1500 GRE (800Q, 700V), 5 AWA</p>
<p>The main thing hindering my chances is my research experience... I currently have a good internship, where I get an opportunity to work directly with the engineers (from good universities). However, this is just one summer.... I can try to get research in the FALL, however, I am wondering for as it stands now. I passed up opportunities in the past first to go to Italy, and another time to do study abroad (too much wanderlust).</p>
<p>I never realized the importance of research until more recently (mostly from forums).</p>
<p>Thanks for your help.</p>
