Fall 17 | MS in CS | GRE: 329 (166,163, 4)| 116 | 79% Rnk 3 | 18 mnths exp | 1 Paper

Hi Guys!

Here's my profile for MS in CS :
GRE 329 - V163 Q166
TOEFL 116
UG from JNTU, Hyderabad - 79% Dept-Rank 3 (Topper :80%)

Work-exp :
Working since 18 months in a Fortune 500 company.

Universities I've zeroed in on based on my research:

• University of Southern California
• Dartmouth College
• SUNY Buffalo or Stony Brook( any one)
• New york university
• SJSU
  

Also, I'm really interested in CMU'S MISM-BIDA 16-month track. I know MS in CS is too ambi in CMU but with the BIDA course, I can take courses from CMU's CS school. Should I give it a try?

-> Lots of completed MOOCs and their projects
-> 1 research paper on Natural Language Processing in International Journal of Combined Research & Development(IJCRD). 1st author
-> National award-winning dancer, writer and represented school in debates, elocution
-> Started and headed clubs in college. Involved with NGOs. Won a national level business plan competition. LOR from college will corroborate with this
-> Main coder for a project at company that won a team award in yearly innovation awards. Was one of the highest-rated employees this performance cycle.
-> Chosen as one of the brand-ambassadors for company's new marketing campaign. Involved in CSR.
-> Will have 2 LORs from office; plus 1 from college Dean who taught CS courses

Any other universities I can add/delete? Looking forward to your feedback!
