I applied to USC and College Park (both costing $165). I could not do Boulder as they don't accept terminal MS (they want direct PhD). I am now crossed between UDelaware and College Station but my spirit is saying Delaware. I shot the Grad coord an email on Friday and her response on Monday will seal my fate. Their deadline is Nov 1 for Spring.

It has not been easy finding my program for M.S thesis-option against spring.

What about you? Are you a Chemical engineer?

okay there's progress, I believe everything will work out well for you. No I studied Building but I'm planning to do my grad study in construction engineering and management and that's a sub-division of civil engineering.

Your choice is great and you have a very good profile to go with it. I asked about you and Chemical engineering because of UW-Madison. You know it is a top school for my program as well.

Clemson should be on your list as well. And Central Missouri. I hear they are both very good and well funded for your course. Try Auburn as well if you have the time.

Bros, how do your hear these things grin. Help our ears too biko.
I've seen a lot of suggestions on this forum; UTK, UNL, Clemson, cleveland et al. However, when I check some of their research groups in my field, I realize they only admit PhD candidates. Is there something we're missing? Yet the graduate coordinators keep saying " all international MS Applicants are duly considered for graduate assistantship" undecided

I actually reported scores to Clemson University but now I'm not so sure about the school. I spoke to a grad student that informed me the professor I had plans of working with doesn't have any ongoing projects, getting funding on admission will be very slim. I'll check out the others you mentioned.

I've noticed that too, they have at most one or two Msc students

well Canada's educational systems are not as flexible their southern neighbors but they are a research intensive country so there is always a way you could but you will have to show your interest and research experience of some sort.
and this qoura answer makes sense so there you go

Thanks, bro. I went to the Quora page. Seems one have to try as much as possible to get thesis based admission

Click the 'can't find your higschool?' and follow the prompt. I am sure they would let you type the name manually.

Hi guys,
after one week of focusing on only quant, I've realised that I need serious help. I don't think a tutorial center will help me because they won't focus on just quant, I also don't have time to go during the day, because of my job.

I'm thinking of getting a GRE maths tutor. if there's anyone here who fits the bill, or can make I recommendation, it will be greatly appreciated. please note that I need a personal tutor and not a tuition center because of the flexibility, my budget is also not very high.
my exam date is Nov 19.

You have a BSc right? It's an indication of your skills to learn and ace/not-fail examinations.

Firstly, what's your weak point in the quantitative section? Geometry? QC? Algebra?
Take notes and get a good introductory material to go over the basics. Manhattan 5lb was instrumental for me.

Have you taken the power prep? What did you score?
Were you clueless about most questions or did you run out of time? Pacing can be tackled with assiduous Practice.

What materials have you been using? Magoosh videos? Manhattan 5lb? Princeton review? Do you have a proper understanding of the techniques being introduced? If not, go back again, check examples and solve questions.

If I may add, it might be difficult to make a giant leap in the space of a week so don't be discouraged.

This platform has eliminated the need for a tutor or tutorial centre for a lot of folks. Its beneficial for you to take advantage of it.

There are also study groups on various social media platforms, try to utilize it.

However if you think all I've typed is bants... I wish you all the best in your quest.

RexCheeng has said a lot to address your issue.

I might just add that you would have to be autodidactic to ace the GRE quant. Along the journey, you will make a lot of silly mistakes that will serve as learning points for you.

You said you are working, right? A lot of us also worked full time when we wrote the GRE. You might have to make a lot of personal sacrifices.

Since your exam is 2 months away, you still have room to improve.

If you must be taught, you might as well use the free Magoosh Videos and learn cool tricks from there. Then practice using Manhattan's 5lb.

Good luck!
