    Grad Interview prep
  • H hamid10hn

    In my experience some programs also ask technical questions (masters) to assess whether you have the skills you claim to have. As long as you have been honest in your claims throughout the application, I think you should be fine. I would recommend reviewing interview tips on program youtube pages or asking current students and searching through popular platforms to get a sense of what you can expect. Interviews can vary greatly from program to program.


  • GRE Prep Plan
  • H hamid10hn

    I was in the same boat a while ago. I utilized Gregmat’s 1 month plan. I think it is very well distributed in terms of workload and will ensure you comprehensively prepare for each element of the test. You can focus on Verbal or Quant based on your program needs/personal prep so far.


  • Ranking criteria for program selection
  • H hamid10hn

    I think your ranking should depend on your personal needs. Are you looking for professors with expertise in a niche area? Are you only concerned about immediate job outcomes or a transition to PHD from a research-based masters? What does your financial situation look like? What kind of stipend/support do you need and what are the chances of getting it in any given uni? This should help you develop your own ranking.


  • Help in finding funding information
  • H hamid10hn

    You should attend their online webinars and ask this question directly. I personally also asked alumni from these programs which provided more specific details about funding prospects.


  • Personalizing SOP for each program
  • H hamid10hn

    I am a bit stuck on how I can personalize my SOPs for each program. I mostly use the program site for my research but I think if I mention things from what unis list on their “Why us” Section, it may come off as too generic, indicating I did not put in time to get to know the program. What different approaches can I take to demonstrate a good fit? I would really appreciate detailed and precise feedback!
