Hey dude,
Good to hear from you! So first of all I wouldn't exactly call a 710 "low", even if it may be too low for Top 10 programs
Overall your profile seems good, and the school list you propose entire reasonable. Actually I would say you can even add 1-2 "dream schools" to your list (say from the 10-20 rankings.
Both Krannert and Maryland are very good schools, even if not Top tier.
Best,
JF
Thanks for the motivating words JF !!
I will surely work hard to get it right with my essays. However , my concern is the AWA and IR score which I don't know what in the world caused me to mess up.
My first attempt was 660 with IR 5 and AWA 4 . Actually, I am pretty good with essays and data interpretation .I can improve but I don't want to precious waste time
which I could use to improve my essays. Request to share your generous opinion.
