Thanks for taking time to provide feedback! I really appreciate it.
Could you please suggest some good univs based on my profile for which it might be safe for me to apply? As i hav already spent 7 yrs in industry, window is really small for me to go for MS. This would be first and most likely last attempt for higher studies.
I would appreciate your help.
