@all those who got iv invitation.pls share ur stats

83/2.97/97/masters in oral bio/DA for 2 yrs...can anyone advice if these stats appears to be good to apply to umn?
 
hey guys
I wanna tell you something before reading this thread, i was preparing for TOEFl to retake it again because my score is 89and i want to apply to UMN.

After reading this thread I have decided that I am not going to apply to this UNI.

it seems impossible for me to get accepted to this UNI and their advanced standing program as they only accept 10 students and they have already sent a rejection and invitation letter for interview.

Am I doing the right decision? My status is very bad 89/75/3.40 :(

Hi,
My stats are part1 87,part2 79 and toefl 108..wat abt u? did u get accepted too...
 
The education credit hours must be 126 or above. what does this mean? On my ECE report it says 125 credit hours per semester. Does this mean i don't meet their standards? After going through 4 yrs n half plus one year internship!! Could some1 clarify?

i studied in a Govt college, and my GPA is 3.72....All subjects have been given a US credit of 7.50, total 17 subjects..so it's 127.5..What ECE made a mistake then?

You might want to check with ECE. With 7.50 US Credit and 17 courses - it does amke 127.5 total semester hours of credit.

Review again to ensure that all 17 courses are given 7.50. You did it from which country?

Also, note that it should be "Total Semester Hours of Credit" and not "Credit Hours Per Semester"

In my report its 18 courses for 7 credit hours each - Total = 126
- with no credit for Internship.

I hope this helps!

i wish someone who has taken the skills test could help us out but i don't think one can practise this really. they want to see how we sit, hold the hand piece, etc etc..
