Methodology
Using the limited score data in the US News & World Report’s release on graduate schools (for engineering and education), I created a block scale that assumes a standard difference between the ETS’s average of intended applicants of a specific major and the rank block (ie Ranks 1-10, 11-50, 51-100). Next I added the expected difference to the average score of the intended major and spread 2 points on either side of that to create a nice range. It would look like this:
| Program | Rank | Rank block | Intended Score | Exp Difference | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| English | 1 | #1-10 | 157 | 11 points | 166-170 |
Of course, you could argue that this isn’t perfect, and I’d have to agree. This is just intended to give you a general idea of what you should be aiming for.
please tell me about ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING(Embedded systems),and which univ's GRE cutoff marks & toefl too.
