1) Basic demographic info: age, gender, nationality
age : 27
sex : male
nationality : Thailand
2) Educational Background: undergrad major, GPA, GMAT score, any grad work you've done
I graduated from public university in computer science field in Thailand. I have 4 years experience as C++ software engineer in the large IT US financial provider company. I believe that my profile in experience is strong enough because I participated in many important fields such as the foreign exchange trading, the database clustering.
However, My overall GPA is 2.89 (I'm not quite sure whether the admission officer will focus on the IT related subjects or not because I've got about 3.4 in such these fields). I took GMAT 2 times, first attempt is 440 and the second attempt is 560 (Q47, V20). Yes, it's a low score, but I can't retake it cos I have to prepare for my IELTs, which I expected to get about 7 band. I will try so hard for IELTs. However, I resign from the company since July 2012 to prepare for my study and do some freelance jobs.
6) Schools: Which schools have you considered already? Any on your initial short list?
I have know a little about the MIS graduate program. Here is the list of university that I'm considering.
- University of pittsburgh
- Georgia state university
- New Jersey institute of technology
- University of Delaware
I have no idea for the chance to get accept from these universities. Please can you give me suggestions of other universities.
Thanks so much!!!
