thank god the selection process in europe is different. writing an essay on why you want to do a masters is ridiculous. people wanting to improve themselves is obvious no explanation needed.

@LuizSMatos-dr9tz 2 года назад

supply and demand plays a role here.

@lolliz100 2 года назад

That's actually a very good point and I agree. Unfortunately ,.. when the amounts of applications surpasses the availability of spaces...additional barriers to entry gets added,...hence "just wanting to improve yourself" usually isn't enough.

Looking back at this. She gave the best advice when she said "talk to second year grad students". Qualifying exams hunts second year phD students.

@Nelson_504 3 года назад

From what I've learned, the GMAT is requested for MBA (Master's in Business Administration) programs, whereas the GRE is basically for all the other Master's degree programs.

"..we just don't look at applic'ns below there unless there's some compelling reason.." i.e. check the right boxes. but you'll still get to complain that you're being discriminated against :)

@@gregy1570 The problem is that lesbian women of color just don't apply to maths programs in the first place, and that's why affirmative action exists. It's a statistical question initially, so you should understand that, but since you're too dumb to hit more that 68% in your maths exams, I don't expect you to get it. Get lost justifying your individual mediocrity with politics.
