MS Plan

Ok so I am back after ages, I guess I am yearning to write today. Anyhow updates are I am planning to apply for MS for fall 2008 or 2009 semester. So from last month and a half I have been busy first with GRE and Toefl preparations and now with admissions process. And the result of it is I have been totally out of touch with blogging world infact from my regular friends too.

GRE score wasn’t great, I underestimated level of difficulty and amount of time required for practice hence scored less than what I could have and wanted to. But it was fun learning new words and trying to add more to vocabulary (though most of them seem to be fading from memory now). Well for Toelf I just had three days to prepare so it all rush but fun. Still waiting for its score.

But whats freaking me out is that I just have 7 days to write a SOP(statement of purpose) and get Letters of recommendation from people. And I am supposed to write one letter of recommendation myself sigh. So lets keep the fingers crossed, do pray and I will try keep updating.

Admission process isn’t easy, it requires constant effort and its not just about GRE or Teofl. All the pieces of your application package must be given due time and prepared well enough. Although I started quite late I would suggest anyone looking to apply to start atleast 6 months before. That will give you enough time to prepare each and everything and it is always better to apply a lot before the deadline.
