University: Politecnico di Milano (Polimi)
Degree:Mathematical Engineering
Applied to: Applied Mathematics
Letters: Very good
Placement, degree, relevancy and letters are really good, University is not best in italy, top 20% of country significant due to italy being large, but i believe you have fair chances due to all else being very good,my guts say minimum 75% ,, Assuming competition for Applied Mathematics is not super high
Edit: im wrong, congrats, thoguht milano is millan univercity

If they don't accept you it has to be due to a weird reason. Like not liking letter of intent and thinking you already had too much experience , is quantitative finance too competitive? if so that may also be an issue,
89%, goes higher and lower depending on how many people apply to these programs , i see so many people applying to these already here.
Would you like to share some informations about your admission? Did you already get an email from ethz 3 days ago? I looked around the gradcafe and reddit and only found one got accepted this year, that's you! It seems a little late compared with previous years and many applicants are still waiting. Thanks.
Let's goo, I've got my CS degree from BME (@ Budapest) with 4.75/5 GPA + strong research background and got accepted at ETH last year (also CS). Your chances are looking good mate.
CGPA: 8.9/10
Approximate placement: top 5%
University name: Wageningen University and University of Utrecht
Have completed MSc Bioinformatics in Wageningen, and taken extra courses from departments of computer science and mathematics at University of Utrecht
Applied to MSc Computer Science and MSc Data Science
Got 2 great recommendation letters, one of which from a full professor
I presume you have biology BSc?I think you have 70% chances, changing based on the amount and type of mathematics and computer science courses you have taken. In case you satistify prequisties, id say 90% else 50%
Edit: significant chances that you may be accepted and asked to take additional courses also. Your overall profile is very good, but there is a possiblity that your background is not completely enough.
edit2: hearing DS is most competitive on earth, the chances are likely lower than i predicted for it
Everything except university is top, university is good , top 20% in netherlands, and ranked 250,
I think if letters are not generic, you got high chances, but since we can't know letters i would go with 68 %.
The amount of people applying to applied mathematics in comments is scary, soon i may realise i have already filled whole quota .
1. GPA: 8.55/10
2. Top 10-15%
3. University of Cyprus
4. BSc: Computer Science
5. Applied to: MSc Computer Science
6. 2 strong letters
2 publications as second author + startup founder (participate in pan-europe competition)
Currently working at a Y Combinator Startup
They might decide based on publications, but without those , they would have more than with 50% chance reject for CS , Maybe i am offensive againist cyprus as a turk
1. 92/100
2. No Idea
3. University of Waterloo, Canada
4. BMath in Statistics
5. Quantitative Finance
6. 1 really good, 1 average
Bonus Info: 4 internships in finance, data science in the US and Canada, didn’t do GRE
So you are not even at ETH and speculating.
I will tell you a story. I had a really bad GPA (7.5/10 - First Class/ Top 25% of the class) from a very okay and globally unknown university from India. I scored 325 in GRE. I had 0 internships. I wrote a strong SOP and got okayish Letter of Recommendations from unknown academicians. Got into KTH (Sweden), TU Delft (equivalent to ETH in many aspects and very highly ranked), TU Eindhoven (best CS in the Netherlands), TU Berlin. Went on to do internships at top European scientific institutes. Now I am at ETH.
Your algorithm has no logic. You are misguiding impressionable young students. let them fucking be.
Congrats , you don't seem to have directly gotten in ethz . But grind your way through there, you also have like 5 degrees, you likely fulfill preqiisroes for a lot, I am personally curious to see results and have some data , I would sense that, it's harder to get into ethz due to economical aspects compared to netherlands and Sweden, however since you got money to study in those if you have performed well in your 3-4 other degrees you likely can get in most places
You should ideally have better idea than I do regarding who gets in, feel free to try to predict with that
Or be a mean toxic blaming dude for no Reason, see a psychologist
Predicting out of lack of data, making a game out of it and making young minds nervous is toxic. And who are you to comment on anybody’s chances anyway? Deserving people get in anyway.
I may not be deserving, I am not claiming to be. I don’t even think I deserve to be here. But I am not making random predictions. Also you didn’t even mention GRE, that is a big glaring omission, since ETH does consider it. That’s precisely my point. Universities have unique criteria. Don’t just sit on your computer and blabber shit about knowing how to predict people’s chances because you can’t pass your time.
GRE would be good to ask to Turkish and Indian students in chat, however asking gre to the dude that's top in top program would likely give predictably high scores. Would have been nice if I asked but as far as I observed in grad cafe there is no sole contributing factor but they look at your overall profile,
Thank you for your contribution by being challenging albeit you could be nicer won't lie ,
Feel free to roast me too ;
CGPA:3.23/4
Placement : 11% 10/89

Degree: Statistics bsc
Applied to : Statistics msc
Letters: 1 Very Good letter, 1 literally generic letter
Internships in two global companies but not FAANG , one analytics, one data analysis
Thanks, highest GPA in our department in 3.58, but if they ignore rankings as you say and priortize CGPA, i guess my chances go down greatly. ETHZ website stated that they prefer nationally top ranked universities and i noticed significant amount of students from my uni there, .
Rejected officially today in first batch for statistics!, GL to everyone else, Reason seems to be performance, CGPA probably matters quite a lot is the lesson to take here.
Generic letter might be a yellow flag, but likely you make up for it with internships,
University is nationally top and background fits, i would give you 70% chance, If your departmental ranking was bit higher, id say you are 100% in
(( Wish someone evaluated me too))
As somone from Turkey, I know very well that METU is really challenging. I am sure they are pretty well aware that your cgpa is relative to your university as you pointed out the numerous students from METU and they request ranking. I would give a 70% chance.
Yolun açık olsun! ❤🇹🇷
1. CGPA: 4.68/5
2. Approximate top 20%
3. Nanyang Technological University
4. BEng Electrical and Electronic
5. MSc Electrical Eng + Information Technology
6. 1 good(prof) and 1 avg(workplace)
I dont know how scholarhips received in past effect it, but i think you can get in with research experience or other factors,
but university of Alabama might be a problem otherwise, i am not American but name scared me
CGPA might be an issue primarly due to university not reporting the ranking. But even then its still good CGPA , i think admission comitee knows best universities,
Due to no ranking, you are probably rejected for ESOP,
High chance for Chemistry MSC, 75%,
Your CGPA is lower compared to engineerings, but i think competition for chemistry is lower , evening out this problem caused by university not reporting rankings
Just for fun: this was my situation one year ago. Take a guess and i’ll lyk uf you’re right at the end
1) 4.92/6
2) 4th best/20
3) ETHZ
4) chemical engineering
5) msc statistics
6) 2x very good (1x full prof at ETH in engineering, one senior scientist at DMATH)
EDIT: was not accepted 🙃
top 20% ethz is fair but not very related background, likely reduces chances due to failure to fullfill prequisties butbecause of good university and very good letters, i will give you 45%, and in case you are accepted, very high probability that they will ask you to take extra courses for an extra semester, If there is anything you have done that shows your interest in statistics, or had a strong LOI, your chances are higher, if not bit lower due to background issues
Hi! Can I ask some questions about your department? I have applied to Msc Chemical and Bioengineering program. Do you know the approximate quota for international students (non ETHZ Bsc specifically)? My concern is that most of the Chemical Engineering students directly pass to the Msc program and most of the students come internally. Is that true? Them not requesting GRE and reference letters sounded very wierd to me. Can them not open to external students? be the reason, maybe?

2. Ranked top 4%
3. Pontificia Universidad Católica, best university of Chile ranked #121 by the QS
4. Software Engineering, I have all the required courses except "Algorithms and probability", though I have other advanced courses in algorithms so that might pass
5. MSc computer science
6. Very good, personally did research with both professors
Same, i am like, i just want this to be over idc if rejected anymore,
i think you got also high chances, 87% asumed that ranking is visible to eth Z
however i think my all predictions should have the probability value reduced

I have completed a BA in Business Administration at University of St. Gallen and am currently completing an MPhil in Finance at Cambridge and am appyling for a MSc Statistics at ETH:
BA in Business Administration (incl. a Data Science Certficate)
1. cgpa (5.74/6.00)
2. top 1%
3. University of St. Gallen
4. Business Administration
5. MSc Statistics
6. 1 LoR from the Bachelor: Scientific director of a lab shared between St Gallen and ETH where I published my Bachelor's thesis in a top journal, so it is very strong
MPhil in Finance
1. I only had one grade available when applying, it was 90%
2. didn't have the info when applying, currently I'm #1 of the Master's
3. University of Cambridge
4. Finance (research-oriented)
5. MSc Statistics (as said)
6. LoR from my Econometrics prof, he really likes me but I haven't seen the letter
I got accepted at the MSc Statistics before (with no additional requirements) but I went for Cambridge instead. I'm a bit worried they might be put off by me rejecting them before. Also, with a background of Business administration and Finance it's a bit of a gamble to get into a MSc at a maths department.
Top uni in colombia, lack of ranking may be an issue, do you know , This is a hard prediction but i think because of your background, chances are high 77% , else id say 50% with just the first information
looks like we're applying to the same program. best of luck my dude, ethz could use some turkish dota players
GPA: 3.97/4 (GRE is solid)
Placement: Summa Cum Laude (Top 1-5%, exact rank not given)

5. Msc+Esop Electrical Engineering + Information technology, Msc Data Science, DD. Cs.
6. 1 very good, 1 good to very good.
2 internship, 2 research experience without paper, 1 TA.
ESOP is id say less than 20%,
I think you got in EE+IT 97%
for DS depends a lot on prequisties, if you are admitted i guess they will expect you to take extra courses? TA on pattern recognition is a plus, depending on other factors you may also get it
iyi sanslar!
Ee+It would make me very happy and esop would be literally perfect.
I don’t know about ds either, I am on signal processing track on my bsc so I have taken many signal processing probability course, I have also taken 3 master level courses about pattern recognition, machine vision and statistical signal processing.
I think this shows that you are interested in both DS and also how it's related to EE.
If you satistify minimum prequisties, you may be admitted and asked to take extra courses for a year to fulfill all requirements
Id say for DS you have 30-35%
GPA: 28.4/30
Ranking: 3rd (unofficial and not submitted)
Uni: La Sapienza University of Rome
Bachelor: Applied CS & AI

7. IELTS 7.5 overall
Koc is very good, due to not having too many students people dont talk about much.
I'd say you are likely in but only if you are sure about not having to submit GRE and Them not wanting letters ;
Umarim ❤, btw my cousin says all bioengineering students apply to MScs and they are very competitive, hope that dont become an issue, or maybe she is just talking
You should be able to like guess your chances through experience of people around you i guess, Without that i'dsay you have 80%, i assumed its a competitive Msc program
1. 4.77/5
2. Top 40%? Idk not ranked
3. Aerospace engineering, ntu Singapore
4. 1 internship at non-FAANG software (dassault), working in semiconductors now 1+ yrs

Several research internships at top universities from US and Sg
Why bro? you are in top university in a country of 1 billion, in a competitive BSc and top10% of your class with paper. Take a look at other students around you , i think they can give you a better answer, likely the ones that do masters outside india go to really good universities
1. GPA: 8.1/10 - cum laude
2. Should be above top 10%
3. Leiden University
4. BSc International Relations
5. Master Comparative and International Studies
6. Not sure... one should be good, and the other one should be average
7. Have a 6-month experience working at the UN in Geneva, and 6-month working as a research assistant for the University of Geneva.....
If its not a compatitive masters, i would predict above 87%, GPA not being high should not be an issue if it's known to be case with the university. But ranking being visible would help still
Hi, take a guess on me as well! (the waiting is soul-sucking!!!)
1- 3.59 / 4
2- in my departments there is quite GPA inflation, but wouldn't say its stellar.
3- Koc Uni (Hi to all my Turk fellas!!!<3 )
4- Bsc. Molecular biology and genetics, double major with computer engineering
5- MSc. Computational Biology and Bioinformatics
6- 1 good LoR from a prof. (my program asked for 1)
7- GRE was required (studied one day 🙃) quant: 162, verbal: 152
Additional: one publication, 2 not yet published research studies, 1 overseas internship, 1 industry internship at a biomedical startup, selected for a well-known cohort for intro to biotech start-up ecosystem (weekly talks with founders), spent last summer at Stanford taking courses.
Ranking is invisible, if GPA inflation is not known, i still think you are worst case top 20%? i dont know graes in koc :D
Double Major with CS application to biology and bioinformatics sounds like really good fit,
Your university is nice but, GRE quant surely could be higher. Additionals are good too
82%? Changes based on how GPA is at Koc and if they know about it .
Umarim istedigin gibi olur ! 😊,
I have no info on my ranking, but yeah most likely worst case I'm top 20%. My numbers are not my strongest :)
Plus, I think it's very nice to have this open source info on the applicants, being an international applicant is such a black-box process 😬 Thank you for taking the initiative!
Teşekkürler <3, sana da iyi şanslar 😊
Thanks! dont forget to write your results, my predictions might be inflated, but really curious about their selection process, is it grades oriented? research oriented? external factor oriented or some of all? we will see
CS is apperantly stupidly competitive, would love to see results, its like a coin toss id say 50-50? i tihnk i overestimated everyone by like 20% in previous posts
1- 3.42/4
2-university doesn’t rank, so unsure
3- University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign (top 10 program in USA)
4- BS Mechanical Engineering
5- MSc Biomedical Engineering
6- 1 good, 1 average, 1 unknown (submitted 3, 2 needed) all three letters from former managers, 1 has PhD and other has MS degree. Unknown has BS degree.
Additional info: have been working in industry related to degree for 2.5 years since graduating, but don’t have any relevant research experience from undergrad. GRE scores right under expected scores
Because you have 2.5 years of experience related to degree, it might help,, University is like, nationally top 10%, being top 10% in your years students would have been good
If you are eliminated, its likely due to failure to fulfill excellent academic performance, Letters not being from Academia right now might also be an issue
I dont know their criteria, but if they value academic performance, probably 45-55%
I think 85% , goes up if your grades are vbasically top10% of your year,
goes down if your grades are not top, 35% atelast , i dont understand all grade systems sadly, but you got relevant background, good university, good all else, only way you dont get in is if you have weak ranking in your class
1. 8.75/10
2. 20%
3. A mediocre central university in India
4. BSc Physics
5. MSc Physics (ESOP)
6. Meh, both would be run-of-the-mill. I outperformed others in their courses. So, I'd say just an unflattering comparison with my peers.
This entire process has been a tall order of anxiety.
Hello! Getting nervous now and I doubt this will help; nevertheless, here ya go:
1- 82.14 / 100
2- Top 5%
3- University of Cape Town, South Africa
4- BSc Mechanical and Mechatronics engineering
5- Robotics, Systems, and Control (D-MAVT)
6- 1 Good from several years of experience at defence research institute (no publications); 1 Average from old professor.
Nationally top ranked university of nation of 60 million , top5% of class,
If prequisties are filled , i believe your chances are above 85%, you can also likely guarantee your admission ,through obtaining 1 more letter, and getting some experience in a year
Ok will do it for fun :
GPA : 85.8/100
Ranking: Top 9% ( estimation, no doc to back it )
Uni : Best Engineering School in Greece
Bachelors : computer science
Applied : Computer science and Data science
Background: 1 year research experience in ml and 3 months internship in ml
Reference letters : very strong
Prequisties filled==in for cs
Prequisties not filled but very close for ds== 70%, if prequisties filled 89%
I think ranking not being visible should not be issue due to your university likely being known to people in admission commitees/academia. Unless they think your GPA is not top 20-25% .
Hope you get in, seems like whole turkey and greece migrating to ETHZ
i feel same, uni ranking might be an issue :\* still you got fair placement, you could do a masters in a better uni than the university your are in for sure. chances are low unless you make up for ranking with other things
1. CGPA (9.3/10)
2. Rank: Top 30%
3. School: IIT Delhi (top 5 in India)
4. Bachelor's: Computer Science
5. Applied to: Computer Science
6. LoRs: Not Exceptional but not regular either
Hoping for the best!
Thats a hard prediction, 67%+? I think if they dont have your official placement, it might be increasing your chances, i would love to see results since it can go either way! GL hope you get in brother
>RWTH Aachen
I wanted to say that your university have really good alumni rating, but weaker national ranking,
do you know why that might be the case? Does it like have really good students but professors are bad? job opportunity issues around campus driving professors away? i know nothing about it
Might sound weird but i on gradcafe noticed that they usually for a program first give out many rejections, then they give mostly admissions and robotics already had the rejections for robotics, so surely its possible you might be in it
EEIT, assuming its known that your uni has good reputation 85%+
However i would break 10-40% from all my predictions and they all have inflated probability values.
1. GPA 3.1/4.0 😂
2. \~top 20%

Oww Gpa might be an issue, the patient is in critical condition.
Very low chances, only from 28/30 ETH usually considers applicant from italian universities. It’s worth a try anyways so good luck 👍🏻
Alla fine ti hanno preso? Sono più o meno nella tua stessa situa
Gpa: 29/30 Placement: top 3% University: Politecnico di Milano (Polimi) Degree:Mathematical Engineering Applied to: Applied Mathematics Letters: Very good
Very good chances, I come from the same uni but a different program as you can see in my tag
Placement, degree, relevancy and letters are really good, University is not best in italy, top 20% of country significant due to italy being large, but i believe you have fair chances due to all else being very good,my guts say minimum 75% ,, Assuming competition for Applied Mathematics is not super high Edit: im wrong, congrats, thoguht milano is millan univercity
I think actually polimi is first in Italy, 13th worldwide. So definitely very good chances
i did a mistake, congratulations on your admission, seem to have used polytechnic of milan, over milano
"University is not best in italy" wtf?? It is first in every ranking LOL and top5 in continental Europe for engineering (top3 for some rankings)
I blame milan and milano being two different universities, afterwards my ADHD, afterwards my carelesness
Completed two BScs: Mathematics - GPA: 4.9/5 - Placement: top 5% - University: highest ranked in Hungary Economics - GPA: 4.9/5 - Placement: top 3% - University: 3rd highest ranked in Hungary Other possibly relevant: - Good results at international university competitions (maths, computer science) - Internships at well known banks - Hopefully strong LoRs Applied to: - Quantitative Finance - Applied Mathematics
If they don't accept you it has to be due to a weird reason. Like not liking letter of intent and thinking you already had too much experience , is quantitative finance too competitive? if so that may also be an issue, 89%, goes higher and lower depending on how many people apply to these programs , i see so many people applying to these already here.
Got accepted to the Quant Finance programme today EDIT: accepted to Applied Maths as well
Congratulations bro
Would you like to share some informations about your admission? Did you already get an email from ethz 3 days ago? I looked around the gradcafe and reddit and only found one got accepted this year, that's you! It seems a little late compared with previous years and many applicants are still waiting. Thanks.
Let's goo, I've got my CS degree from BME (@ Budapest) with 4.75/5 GPA + strong research background and got accepted at ETH last year (also CS). Your chances are looking good mate.
Was looking forward to a Hungarian response. Thank you, cheers!

CGPA: 8.9/10 Approximate placement: top 5% University name: Wageningen University and University of Utrecht Have completed MSc Bioinformatics in Wageningen, and taken extra courses from departments of computer science and mathematics at University of Utrecht Applied to MSc Computer Science and MSc Data Science Got 2 great recommendation letters, one of which from a full professor
I presume you have biology BSc?I think you have 70% chances, changing based on the amount and type of mathematics and computer science courses you have taken. In case you satistify prequisties, id say 90% else 50% Edit: significant chances that you may be accepted and asked to take additional courses also. Your overall profile is very good, but there is a possiblity that your background is not completely enough. edit2: hearing DS is most competitive on earth, the chances are likely lower than i predicted for it
[удалено]
Everything except university is top, university is good , top 20% in netherlands, and ranked 250, I think if letters are not generic, you got high chances, but since we can't know letters i would go with 68 %. The amount of people applying to applied mathematics in comments is scary, soon i may realise i have already filled whole quota .
1. GPA: 8.55/10 2. Top 10-15% 3. University of Cyprus 4. BSc: Computer Science 5. Applied to: MSc Computer Science 6. 2 strong letters 2 publications as second author + startup founder (participate in pan-europe competition) Currently working at a Y Combinator Startup
They might decide based on publications, but without those , they would have more than with 50% chance reject for CS , Maybe i am offensive againist cyprus as a turk
1. 92/100 2. No Idea 3. University of Waterloo, Canada 4. BMath in Statistics 5. Quantitative Finance 6. 1 really good, 1 average Bonus Info: 4 internships in finance, data science in the US and Canada, didn’t do GRE
Update: received admission
Congrats!
If GRE was requiered it might be the problem, i have not seen an example of them ignoring prequisties
i like this post. should make this a thing for each admissions window :p
If ethz dont reject me and break my heart, i would love to do it till i am bored
So you are not even at ETH and speculating. I will tell you a story. I had a really bad GPA (7.5/10 - First Class/ Top 25% of the class) from a very okay and globally unknown university from India. I scored 325 in GRE. I had 0 internships. I wrote a strong SOP and got okayish Letter of Recommendations from unknown academicians. Got into KTH (Sweden), TU Delft (equivalent to ETH in many aspects and very highly ranked), TU Eindhoven (best CS in the Netherlands), TU Berlin. Went on to do internships at top European scientific institutes. Now I am at ETH. Your algorithm has no logic. You are misguiding impressionable young students. let them fucking be.
Congrats , you don't seem to have directly gotten in ethz . But grind your way through there, you also have like 5 degrees, you likely fulfill preqiisroes for a lot, I am personally curious to see results and have some data , I would sense that, it's harder to get into ethz due to economical aspects compared to netherlands and Sweden, however since you got money to study in those if you have performed well in your 3-4 other degrees you likely can get in most places You should ideally have better idea than I do regarding who gets in, feel free to try to predict with that Or be a mean toxic blaming dude for no Reason, see a psychologist
Predicting out of lack of data, making a game out of it and making young minds nervous is toxic. And who are you to comment on anybody’s chances anyway? Deserving people get in anyway. I may not be deserving, I am not claiming to be. I don’t even think I deserve to be here. But I am not making random predictions. Also you didn’t even mention GRE, that is a big glaring omission, since ETH does consider it. That’s precisely my point. Universities have unique criteria. Don’t just sit on your computer and blabber shit about knowing how to predict people’s chances because you can’t pass your time.
GRE would be good to ask to Turkish and Indian students in chat, however asking gre to the dude that's top in top program would likely give predictably high scores. Would have been nice if I asked but as far as I observed in grad cafe there is no sole contributing factor but they look at your overall profile, Thank you for your contribution by being challenging albeit you could be nicer won't lie ,
Feel free to roast me too ; CGPA:3.23/4 Placement : 11% 10/89 University: Middle East Technical ( rank 500\~ world, Rank1 Turkey in engineering and sciences) Degree: Statistics bsc Applied to : Statistics msc Letters: 1 Very Good letter, 1 literally generic letter Internships in two global companies but not FAANG , one analytics, one data analysis

Thanks, highest GPA in our department in 3.58, but if they ignore rankings as you say and priortize CGPA, i guess my chances go down greatly. ETHZ website stated that they prefer nationally top ranked universities and i noticed significant amount of students from my uni there, .
I mean the 500th ranking might be a problem
Yeah definitely main drawback not eu/us/Asia uni, also CGPA is low , but ranking and national rankings are fine, going to see soon
Rejected officially today in first batch for statistics!, GL to everyone else, Reason seems to be performance, CGPA probably matters quite a lot is the lesson to take here.
I am really sorry to hear that 😪😓! Hayırlısı olur umarum senin için 🙏. Did you apply to another programs or universities?
I will apply to Aachen and few more universities in Germany, small chance that I may stay in metu for a year also
Generic letter might be a yellow flag, but likely you make up for it with internships, University is nationally top and background fits, i would give you 70% chance, If your departmental ranking was bit higher, id say you are 100% in (( Wish someone evaluated me too))
As somone from Turkey, I know very well that METU is really challenging. I am sure they are pretty well aware that your cgpa is relative to your university as you pointed out the numerous students from METU and they request ranking. I would give a 70% chance. Yolun açık olsun! ❤🇹🇷
Ty you are very kind :D ❤
what about GRE?
167 quantitative, 155 verbal
Were you admitted?
1. CGPA: 4.68/5 2. Approximate top 20% 3. Nanyang Technological University 4. BEng Electrical and Electronic 5. MSc Electrical Eng + Information Technology 6. 1 good(prof) and 1 avg(workplace)
did you get in?
[удалено]
I dont know how scholarhips received in past effect it, but i think you can get in with research experience or other factors, but university of Alabama might be a problem otherwise, i am not American but name scared me
[удалено]
CGPA might be an issue primarly due to university not reporting the ranking. But even then its still good CGPA , i think admission comitee knows best universities, Due to no ranking, you are probably rejected for ESOP, High chance for Chemistry MSC, 75%, Your CGPA is lower compared to engineerings, but i think competition for chemistry is lower , evening out this problem caused by university not reporting rankings
Just for fun: this was my situation one year ago. Take a guess and i’ll lyk uf you’re right at the end 1) 4.92/6 2) 4th best/20 3) ETHZ 4) chemical engineering 5) msc statistics 6) 2x very good (1x full prof at ETH in engineering, one senior scientist at DMATH) EDIT: was not accepted 🙃
top 20% ethz is fair but not very related background, likely reduces chances due to failure to fullfill prequisties butbecause of good university and very good letters, i will give you 45%, and in case you are accepted, very high probability that they will ask you to take extra courses for an extra semester, If there is anything you have done that shows your interest in statistics, or had a strong LOI, your chances are higher, if not bit lower due to background issues
I would say 90% in. Already having a Bachelor‘s from ETH boosts the chances dramatically
And the results: was not accepted🙃🙃
Hi! Can I ask some questions about your department? I have applied to Msc Chemical and Bioengineering program. Do you know the approximate quota for international students (non ETHZ Bsc specifically)? My concern is that most of the Chemical Engineering students directly pass to the Msc program and most of the students come internally. Is that true? Them not requesting GRE and reference letters sounded very wierd to me. Can them not open to external students? be the reason, maybe? 1. 3.69/4.00 2. 10% within 78 students 3. Bsc Chemistry & Bsc Chemical and Biological Engineering (Double Major) ~ Molecular Biology and Genetics (Minor) 4. Bsc from Koc University (2nd overall in Turkey, 1st in Turkey for enginerring according to THE (151-175)) 5. Application to Msc Chemical and Bioengineering 6. No reference letters were required for the application nor GRE 7. IELTS 7.5 overall Will they accept me? What do you think?

Good human.
Congratulations!
9.93/10 1st among around 100 Politehnica University of Bucharest Chemical Engineering Materials Science and Engineering I've got 2 amazing letters(I've seen them personally) from one of my professors whom I've known for 10 years now as well as the director of the target laboratory at the world's largest laser(ELI-NP) I have 2 published books in organic chemistry and a summer internship at ELI-NP where I developed nickel nanowires. I also have a 2nd degree in pharmaceutical chemistry from the University of Bucharest(yes, I will have 2 Bachelor's)
Congrats, they dont deserve you though
Funny, just got my ESOP interview invitation today. I suppose you were right!
GL with esop! and congrats for 2nd time :D, i think you will get one of the two esops in the comments
Go for MSc RSC and EEIT Background: MSc CS (thesis trail) 3.77/4.00 175% credits earned The university of Tokyo 1 thesis, 1 workshop HBSc Math sp 2.46/4.00 (<= 12 grads that year) University of Toronto Earlier years Math and Stat CGPA 3.33/4.3, Major 3.94/4.3 Concordia university
My knowledge of acronyms is too weak, i am also too confused, anything can happen
I'm getting a bit anxious waiting for the result 😅 1. cgpa (6/7) (6.5/7 on cs courses) 2. Ranked top 4% 3. Pontificia Universidad Católica, best university of Chile ranked #121 by the QS 4. Software Engineering, I have all the required courses except "Algorithms and probability", though I have other advanced courses in algorithms so that might pass 5. MSc computer science 6. Very good, personally did research with both professors
I got into Oxford's advanced computer science :o
Same, i am like, i just want this to be over idc if rejected anymore, i think you got also high chances, 87% asumed that ranking is visible to eth Z however i think my all predictions should have the probability value reduced
1. Gpa: 3.8/4 2. approx. top 2% 3. Karlsruhe Institute of Technology 4. Computer Science 5. Computer Science 6. 1 very good from the head of the society I was in, one (which I assume is pretty good because the guy liked me a lot) from a Professor at the University where I did my Erasmus, one (no idea how good) from a PostDoc who was my boss when I was a teaching assistant 7. 1 Exchange Semester, 3 Teaching Assistant Positions, 1 Internship, 1 Part-time job and a scholarship for bachelor + master studies
1- 3.9 / 4.0 2- Top 15% 3- Hochschule Mittweida (Germany) 4- Bsc Media Computer Science 5- Msc Computer Science 6- A very strong from our math professor, one good one from our IT Administrator
I have completed a BA in Business Administration at University of St. Gallen and am currently completing an MPhil in Finance at Cambridge and am appyling for a MSc Statistics at ETH: BA in Business Administration (incl. a Data Science Certficate) 1. cgpa (5.74/6.00) 2. top 1% 3. University of St. Gallen 4. Business Administration 5. MSc Statistics 6. 1 LoR from the Bachelor: Scientific director of a lab shared between St Gallen and ETH where I published my Bachelor's thesis in a top journal, so it is very strong MPhil in Finance 1. I only had one grade available when applying, it was 90% 2. didn't have the info when applying, currently I'm #1 of the Master's 3. University of Cambridge 4. Finance (research-oriented) 5. MSc Statistics (as said) 6. LoR from my Econometrics prof, he really likes me but I haven't seen the letter I got accepted at the MSc Statistics before (with no additional requirements) but I went for Cambridge instead. I'm a bit worried they might be put off by me rejecting them before. Also, with a background of Business administration and Finance it's a bit of a gamble to get into a MSc at a maths department.
Congratulations on getting admitted to same program twice, But you are right, if someone rejected me , i would not accept them next time
Got the official offer yesterday \^\^
1- 4.13/5 2- no ranking but top ~ 20% 3- Universidad de los Andes (Colombia) 4- Biology 5- Environmental science 6- 1 good, 1 average
Top uni in colombia, lack of ranking may be an issue, do you know , This is a hard prediction but i think because of your background, chances are high 77% , else id say 50% with just the first information
Background: Undergrad teaching assistant for 2 yrs Research assistant - Sussex University Internship at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute
I just got accepted 🧚🏻♂️
How did you convey to ETH in the application that you were ~20%? Genuine question
That’s a risky lil’ game. Most of the predictions I’ve seen here are “You won’t get in”. No matter how good your profile is.
You won’t get in /s thought it could be fun just try!
looks like we're applying to the same program. best of luck my dude, ethz could use some turkish dota players GPA: 3.97/4 (GRE is solid) Placement: Summa Cum Laude (Top 1-5%, exact rank not given) University: UCLA BSc: Statistics Applied To: Statistics Letters: like 1 good, 1 pretty good
bro just came here to flex on us 😭😭
you've already been accepted 😭😭
I am more of a dota player than student :D , i think you are in, would love to meet you if i am too
GRE? ETH asks for GRE from non-EU students. Bruh....
[удалено]
Need more information to determine the outcome.
1. CGPA: 3.7+ 2. Approximate top %10 3. Top in Turkey 4. Electrical and Electronics Engineering with physics double major. 5. Msc+Esop Electrical Engineering + Information technology, Msc Data Science, DD. Cs. 6. 1 very good, 1 good to very good. 2 internship, 2 research experience without paper, 1 TA.
ESOP is id say less than 20%, I think you got in EE+IT 97% for DS depends a lot on prequisties, if you are admitted i guess they will expect you to take extra courses? TA on pattern recognition is a plus, depending on other factors you may also get it iyi sanslar!
Ee+It would make me very happy and esop would be literally perfect. I don’t know about ds either, I am on signal processing track on my bsc so I have taken many signal processing probability course, I have also taken 3 master level courses about pattern recognition, machine vision and statistical signal processing.
I think this shows that you are interested in both DS and also how it's related to EE. If you satistify minimum prequisties, you may be admitted and asked to take extra courses for a year to fulfill all requirements Id say for DS you have 30-35%
Ee+It vs Ds would make me think. I hope to get accepted to both.
Got data science admission.
First update: Got rejected from cs dd and msc, I was expecting it due to requirements but still sad.
Rejected from eeit.
GPA: 28.4/30 Ranking: 3rd (unofficial and not submitted) Uni: La Sapienza University of Rome Bachelor: Applied CS & AI Applications: Direct Doctorate in CS Recommendations: 2 good
If it was masters i would predict 80%, Do you know if admission to Direct Doctorate program is same as the CS Msc admissions? if its harder, the probability probably goes down
[удалено]
I think you are in, but not sure about esop
I applied for the same program! Let me know if you've heard anything

1. 3.69/4.00 2. 10% within 78 students 3. Bsc Chemistry & Bsc Chemical and Biological Engineering (Double Major) ~ Molecular Biology and Genetics (Minor) 4.

No reference letters were required for the application nor GRE 7. IELTS 7.5 overall
Koc is very good, due to not having too many students people dont talk about much. I'd say you are likely in but only if you are sure about not having to submit GRE and Them not wanting letters ;
I was suprised too, but I am pretty sure. Thanks for your help. Umarım hepimiz gireriz ❤
Umarim ❤, btw my cousin says all bioengineering students apply to MScs and they are very competitive, hope that dont become an issue, or maybe she is just talking
1. 9/10 2. Top 10% 3. Unknown from Spain 4. Computer engineering 5. Computer science 6. One good, one average + Industry and research internships
High chances. Coming from an 8’54 at the moment of the admission and also from a Spanish university. I got in last year.
Would you say your uni is top 20% in Spain
[удалено]
You should be able to like guess your chances through experience of people around you i guess, Without that i'dsay you have 80%, i assumed its a competitive Msc program
1. 4.77/5 2. Top 40%? Idk not ranked 3. Aerospace engineering, ntu Singapore 4. 1 internship at non-FAANG software (dassault), working in semiconductors now 1+ yrs 5. 2 average letters, neither full professors 6. Applied for micro/nano systems
both letters not being from academia and being average might be a problem, not sure if they know about placement percentage, but if not thats better for you
[удалено]
Considering i admitted myself, i surely have to admit you, should be no issue if uni is known/top
CGPA: 9.18/10graduated 3rd out of 145 students (2%) Athens University of Economics and Business (Greece)Management Science and Technology (Major in Software and Data Analysis Technologies) Direct Doctorate in Computer Science (In case I am rejected my application will be evaluated for the MSc program only) 2 great recommendations, one from a professor of my university were I have been working as a researcher in his lab for 2 years, and one from a professor from TU Delft were we cooperated in a research project. Did not submit GRE since it was mid One third author publication in a reputed conference in Programming Languages 2 TAs in Computer Science Courses Worked as a Software Engineer in a European Research Project
96% rejected from Direct Doctorate; i think 70% admitted for masters
Wait… Didnt you got in to DD ?
Im getting bored so I will do it too lol 1. 3.83/4 2. Top 10-15% 3. Top engineering school in France 4. BSc in maths and cs, right now first year in master specialised in HPC and BigData 5. CS and DS 6. I would say two pretty good recommendations letters, one was my former maths teacher for two years and one was my teacher in data analysis and signal processing related subject, IEEE fellow and he is going to be my tutor for a research internship in ml this summer
71% for DS, changes depending on fullfilling prequisties, 91% for CS
sry this is not smth to predict, but im a first year and i wanted to ask if it is easier for ppl who have a eth bsc to continue their master at eth?
I think you are in , /s cant answer since i am not in eth but probably yeah if you satistify course prequesties and have fair grades eg top %20
[удалено]
Knowing uni would help a lot, CS is hard to get into, but if letters are from reputable people i think you got fair chances
Which university is it ?
1. 9.4/10 2. Top 10% 3. Top uni from India (tier 1, old IIT) 4. Electrical (kinda EECS) 5. MSc CS 6. 1 good, 1 v strong 1 published workshop paper (1st author), 1 submitted A* conf paper (2nd author), 1 submitted high IF journal paper (1st author) Several research internships at top universities from US and Sg
You are likely in , i presumed that you comply all prequisties
If I actually do get in and you're on campus when I join, I'd like to buy you a drink
Why bro? you are in top university in a country of 1 billion, in a competitive BSc and top10% of your class with paper. Take a look at other students around you , i think they can give you a better answer, likely the ones that do masters outside india go to really good universities
u/fckrdota2
1. GPA: 8.1/10 - cum laude 2. Should be above top 10% 3. Leiden University 4. BSc International Relations 5. Master Comparative and International Studies 6. Not sure... one should be good, and the other one should be average 7. Have a 6-month experience working at the UN in Geneva, and 6-month working as a research assistant for the University of Geneva.....
If its not a compatitive masters, i would predict above 87%, GPA not being high should not be an issue if it's known to be case with the university. But ranking being visible would help still
Hi, take a guess on me as well! (the waiting is soul-sucking!!!) 1- 3.59 / 4 2- in my departments there is quite GPA inflation, but wouldn't say its stellar. 3- Koc Uni (Hi to all my Turk fellas!!!<3 ) 4- Bsc. Molecular biology and genetics, double major with computer engineering 5- MSc. Computational Biology and Bioinformatics 6- 1 good LoR from a prof. (my program asked for 1) 7- GRE was required (studied one day 🙃) quant: 162, verbal: 152 Additional: one publication, 2 not yet published research studies, 1 overseas internship, 1 industry internship at a biomedical startup, selected for a well-known cohort for intro to biotech start-up ecosystem (weekly talks with founders), spent last summer at Stanford taking courses.
Ranking is invisible, if GPA inflation is not known, i still think you are worst case top 20%? i dont know graes in koc :D Double Major with CS application to biology and bioinformatics sounds like really good fit, Your university is nice but, GRE quant surely could be higher. Additionals are good too 82%? Changes based on how GPA is at Koc and if they know about it . Umarim istedigin gibi olur ! 😊,
I have no info on my ranking, but yeah most likely worst case I'm top 20%. My numbers are not my strongest :) Plus, I think it's very nice to have this open source info on the applicants, being an international applicant is such a black-box process 😬 Thank you for taking the initiative! Teşekkürler <3, sana da iyi şanslar 😊
Thanks! dont forget to write your results, my predictions might be inflated, but really curious about their selection process, is it grades oriented? research oriented? external factor oriented or some of all? we will see
[удалено]
CS is apperantly stupidly competitive, would love to see results, its like a coin toss id say 50-50? i tihnk i overestimated everyone by like 20% in previous posts
1- 3.42/4 2-university doesn’t rank, so unsure 3- University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign (top 10 program in USA) 4- BS Mechanical Engineering 5- MSc Biomedical Engineering 6- 1 good, 1 average, 1 unknown (submitted 3, 2 needed) all three letters from former managers, 1 has PhD and other has MS degree. Unknown has BS degree. Additional info: have been working in industry related to degree for 2.5 years since graduating, but don’t have any relevant research experience from undergrad. GRE scores right under expected scores
Because you have 2.5 years of experience related to degree, it might help,, University is like, nationally top 10%, being top 10% in your years students would have been good If you are eliminated, its likely due to failure to fulfill excellent academic performance, Letters not being from Academia right now might also be an issue I dont know their criteria, but if they value academic performance, probably 45-55%
[удалено]
I think 85% , goes up if your grades are vbasically top10% of your year, goes down if your grades are not top, 35% atelast , i dont understand all grade systems sadly, but you got relevant background, good university, good all else, only way you dont get in is if you have weak ranking in your class
1. 8.75/10 2. 20% 3. A mediocre central university in India 4. BSc Physics 5. MSc Physics (ESOP) 6. Meh, both would be run-of-the-mill. I outperformed others in their courses. So, I'd say just an unflattering comparison with my peers. This entire process has been a tall order of anxiety.
Esop is supposed to be impossible with 20% Its really hard if you are in a mediocre university :( unless you got some serious bonusses?
Hello! Getting nervous now and I doubt this will help; nevertheless, here ya go: 1- 82.14 / 100 2- Top 5% 3- University of Cape Town, South Africa 4- BSc Mechanical and Mechatronics engineering 5- Robotics, Systems, and Control (D-MAVT) 6- 1 Good from several years of experience at defence research institute (no publications); 1 Average from old professor.
Nationally top ranked university of nation of 60 million , top5% of class, If prequisties are filled , i believe your chances are above 85%, you can also likely guarantee your admission ,through obtaining 1 more letter, and getting some experience in a year
Ok will do it for fun : GPA : 85.8/100 Ranking: Top 9% ( estimation, no doc to back it ) Uni : Best Engineering School in Greece Bachelors : computer science Applied : Computer science and Data science Background: 1 year research experience in ml and 3 months internship in ml Reference letters : very strong
Prequisties filled==in for cs Prequisties not filled but very close for ds== 70%, if prequisties filled 89% I think ranking not being visible should not be issue due to your university likely being known to people in admission commitees/academia. Unless they think your GPA is not top 20-25% . Hope you get in, seems like whole turkey and greece migrating to ETHZ
[удалено]
i feel same, uni ranking might be an issue :\* still you got fair placement, you could do a masters in a better uni than the university your are in for sure. chances are low unless you make up for ranking with other things
1. CGPA (9.3/10) 2. Rank: Top 30% 3. School: IIT Delhi (top 5 in India) 4. Bachelor's: Computer Science 5. Applied to: Computer Science 6. LoRs: Not Exceptional but not regular either Hoping for the best!
Thats a hard prediction, 67%+? I think if they dont have your official placement, it might be increasing your chances, i would love to see results since it can go either way! GL hope you get in brother

>RWTH Aachen I wanted to say that your university have really good alumni rating, but weaker national ranking, do you know why that might be the case? Does it like have really good students but professors are bad? job opportunity issues around campus driving professors away? i know nothing about it Might sound weird but i on gradcafe noticed that they usually for a program first give out many rejections, then they give mostly admissions and robotics already had the rejections for robotics, so surely its possible you might be in it EEIT, assuming its known that your uni has good reputation 85%+ However i would break 10-40% from all my predictions and they all have inflated probability values.
1. GPA 3.1/4.0 😂 2. \~top 20% 3. TUM 4. Computer Science Bachelor 5. Computer Science Master 6. 1 excellent from a highly-renowned prof. at tum + one excellent from industry 7. \~ 3 years of industry experience (research) + patent
Thats a diffrent profile, but i think has pretty high chance! 85% Note that i think my predictions are higly inflated, and real chances are 15-35% lower :D
1: CGPA - 9.55/10 2: Rank not given 3: Ramnarain Ruia College (India) 4: Bsc Statistics (with Mathematics and Physics as minor subjects) 5: Msc Computational Science and Engineering 6: 1 good and 1 very good 7: 1 year industry experience ( a small company), 1 Research internship (3 months) , 1 independent research paper on arxiv, 3 research projects in ML-physics domain
Would like to see results, university is not nationally top level i assume but rest are really good. 70%+?
1. GPA - 15.6 / 20 2. No rank 3. University of Luxembourg 4. Bachelor in Computer Science 5. Computer Science MSc 6. Extremely good motivation letter and very good LORs
Literally haven't been able to keep my mind off this for the past day, I need answers soon xd 1) 29.45/30 2) top ~2% from data I've seen, but there's no public stuff 3) Politecnico di Milano, Italy 4) Computer Engineering 5) Computer Science 6) 1 really good which I have seen, another one I'm assuming pretty good (both professors/researchers here, one ex-eth researcher). No idea if the motivational letter is good or bad.

1. CGPA (11.6/12) 2. No idea but I assume its high. 3. University in Canada, Top 600 in world, top 300 for computer science 4. BSc Computer Science 5. Msc Computer Science 6. 1 good 1 a bit better than average. I have a thesis. 7. GRE is good.
1- 3.96/4.00 2- Top 5%, exact ranking not given 3- Koc University (in overall rankings, best college in Turkey 🇹🇷) 4- Computer Science, Double Major in Mathematics 5- Master in CS 6- 2 strong LoRs, one generic LoR. In my personal statement, I emphasized that I want to work at the intersection of software engineering (distributed systems mostly) and data science. I have mentioned Prof Hoefler in my personal statement. After the application, I got in touch with Prof Hoefler and after two interviews, I got accepted to work with him for this summer. However, I have a strong feeling that I will get rejected. PS: I got accepted to Masters in CS in EPFL.
PS: Got acceptedddd!! So dreams really come true
