Do you know any good websites or e-books that explain everything I need to know about postgraduate programmes in the U.K.? I’m currently looking for a master’s programme there. Do I need to take any tests like the GRE test or do I need do a research? Also, I haven’t fully comprehended the difference between Taught and Research Master’s. I’m an international student.

Your help is highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

i was a biology major. i had a hard time with it. i am improving my gpa. it was a 2.9 now it is a 3.1 something, by the time i graduate it will be a 3.2-3.3. so i am wondering. is a 3.2-3.3 a good gpa for a college student. i will be applying to graduate school, but of course the schools i am applying to say a 3.0 or higher and don’t require the GRE. so i think i might be okay. just wondering though. thanks in advance.
by the way i am a sociology major, psychology and religion minor. i will be applying for my master’s of social work soon. i have a year and a half left of college. thank GOD.

Hello. I just took the GRE Revised General Test yesterday, and they don’t have automatic estimated scores for the new scoring system, and it told me that in terms of the old scoring system my Verbal Reasoning score was in the 540-640 range, and my Quantitative Reasoning score was in the 670-770 range. It didn’t give any estimation for my Analytical Writing section, of course, but I’m fairly confident that I did well in that section. Are those scores good, poor, or average? I haven’t been able to find a definite scoring chart. Thanks in advance!

This is a repost from an earlier question because I realized I had left out a lot of key information. I’m still a newbie to yahoo answers! Thank again for all the incoming advice!

I am planning on speaking to a recruiter. But of course, but before I do I just would like to get some feedback on how competitive I would be for OCS so I won’t get laughed out of the recruiter’s office. I am currently getting my masters in public administration and want to serve my country. Here are some of my stats and any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Undergrad GPA- 3.8
*worked full time during most of my undergrad career
Degree- Political Science
Act- 27
Gre-1160
1 year of volunteer work with the Red Cross
Age: 24
Height: 5′10
Weight: 180
Exercise: Usually twice a day at least 5 days a week. Cardio in the morning and weights in the evening.

My criminal record is clean except for a few speeding tickets.
In terms of leadership and work history, my job during my last year of college was as a shift manager at blockbuster and prior to that I had worked at a law firm. I also was treasurer and then president of my college’s Model Arab League debate team for a year. With the red cross I have not really had the time to take on too much responsibility but I am sure that if it would help I could put in more hours and try to get more responsibility.

I want to know, which is the best university to do biotechnology from(it would be great if you could justify your answer).

I majored in Soc & Econ under the social scinces in my school’s liberal arts department. I know calculus fairly well and have taken Astronomy so I touch on classical physcis somewhat (I took AP Physics in HS). Discussion wise I am familiar with what is happening in the quantum world and cosmology, but the finer details-the math and formulas need work. I have a book and have began studying rigorously. My only concern is the "laboratory" section and the math on the GRE subject exam. Realistically, will my lack of the first three years of undergrad in physcis truly inhibit me from learning those sections and topics on my own? Is it naive of me to think I can do it? I would like to go into grad school for this seeing that i find it fascinating. Someone who knows would be of great advice! Thanks in advance!

that is either business oriented or else science oriented……if business oriented means i can take GMAT or else i can take GRE…..plz suggest me…..

thanks in advance….cheers

I am preparing for the GRE and my knowledge of the business world is very limited. I need to improve it so that I can write better essays. Please give me a book that illustrates the traits of a successful business and corporate executive. Something I could read in two or three days (around 300 pages). Something like Machiavelli’s "The Prince," which provides the traits for a successful leader. If the book is a history of one successful business, like General Electric or Amazon.com, that would be okay, too. Thanks in advance!

GRE stands for Graduate Record Examination. It is a requirement for getting admissions to the Masters Degree. I need sample questions as similar as possible to the exact exam questions. Updated and new sample exams will be beneficial. Thanks in advance.

PhD without GRE

If you are pursuing for a PhD but you do not feel confident with taking the GRE there are some universities in the US which do not require GRE exam. Some Small private (sometimes Catholic) Universities in US don’t require GRE or even an impressive undergrad GPA to enroll in Grad Degree Program. These are usually really good “teaching universities” as opposed to “research universities”. Also, there are a lot of “online universities” offering PhDs without GRE/GMAT score in the US. However, if you are not planning on having a degree on-line, then I would recommend you to take the GRE test. When you think about it PhD is all about research, if you are not willing to take GRE or TOEFL, then why do you want to think about PhD? PHD requires intensive effort, you should be precise and  goal oriented  to complete PhD in US Universities. In comparison to completing PhD GRE is a children game. If you plan to take the easy route, then you will surely face the consequences few years down the road.

Also, even though you might choose eventually a program that does not require GRE, TOEFL or iBT/IELTS exams are compulsory for all students wishing to pursue an education in the U.S so if you already study for TOFFEL exam you just might as well learn for the GRE. Another point is if you are thinking to study Doctorate degree, then it should be good university, which has research in your field of interest and professors who will be supportive to take you as student. So, don’t waste your time searching for Universities for PhD without Gre, instead spend time to prepare for GRE.

And the last thing which is no less important is that it is very tough to get a visa without GRE scores.

I want to apply to a Masters in Computer Science in the US. I got 780 in the quantitative section and 460 in the verbal section of GRE. A site that, according to my scores, suggests me universities would be great. Any school suggestion according to my scores will be appreciated too.

Thanks in advance
