Hi Sachin, I would really recommend you to put a conclusion graphic or table so that it helps in better understanding and a person can directly summarize your video... Hopefully, you will read this!!

Now..this was needed!!
I was in the top 2% of my class still having a CGPA of 8.66. Topper of our batch also has 8.82 CGPA. Our University has a pretty harsh method of providing grades. If I were from another universitiy my grade might have been 9.5+. :(
Don't worry just make sure that your academic LoR has it mentioned that u are top 2 percentage in the class. Universities will understand. Ik people who've gotten into places like Stanford with much more lower GPAs.

@@isapillai9726 Which program did they apply for and did they have any work experience ?
Thanks for the video 🙏
Sir I study physics in IIT DELHI but my GPA is 6.8 . I can improve my GPA to 8+. Will I be able to get into ms at a good university?
Oh course, increase your final CGPA and your badge matters as well
please make a video on IELTS,GRE ,TOFEL exam pattern and preparation time required and marks
Hi Sachin, I have a decent academics score (BEX - 77.8%, equivalent to 3.85 GPA), but I had one backlog, which I cleared immediately during the first attempt. Furthermore, the backlog was due to me having some surgery at that time. If I justify this, will good universities(Top 50) accept them? As you said, other profile matters too, but I am specifically asking from the academics point of view?
Hi Nimo, yup that should be okay since it's an extenuating circumstance :)
My cgpa is 2.26 its 66-73%
I studied from a reputated private university and my Department is EEE.
Is it possible for Masters program in canada.I am very frustrated. Please comment me & keep me in your prayer.
I scored 60% in 9th it got wasted because of corona i scored 75% in class 10th somehow manged to do 9th and 10th syllabus together all my lost is gone for scholarship
I have 2.28 gpa and 17 backlogs bt no drop in a year. Also I scored 315 in gre and 102 in toefl. even have a 4 yrs of experience in 2 IT companies as a QA lead and automation. Participated in many extra curricular activities also. Can I get atleast an avg 50-100 top college for MS in usa?? It's just I never studied in college cuz I didn't have any interest in that. Bt now I want to study.
Can you please help me out to convert percentage into GPA?
I'm applying for PhD and my Masters GPA is in the top 5% but Bachelors GPA is very low (6.18) with backlogs. Will that work if I try to compensate with GRE, GRE Maths, TOEFL and my research experience? And also explain my reason in SOP?
Did u get in. I'm stressed about my cgpa too. I have only 6.3 now in 5th semester. Sister can u please help me by giving any updates. Did u get a good uni
@@Rohit-rx5rz I will be applying this fall. So fingers crossed.
@@rishitachakraborty9783 Updates on your application?
Hey. I'm Akash and I'm from India. I'm not sure I get what you're saying about GPA. In my university, you get a GPA each semester based on your performance in the semester exams. Then an average of all GPAs are taken to calculate the CGPA, which is the Cumulative GPA. What does this have to do with being in the top 5% of my class?
Top 5% of your class means you have a CGPA in the top 5% of your class.
@@SachinPullil150 hi Sachin, In our batch of 120 students only 10-15 percent students don't have a backlog and I am in one of them. Also, I am in top 10 percent of the class and in top 5 percent four last 4 semesters. To let them know my academic capability,Do I have to mention these things in my SoP or will it be too much boasting, esp with backlog statement? If I don't how would they know about our class academic standards?
@@rohit4539 Unfortunately, there's not much you can do. When you say it in your SOP, that sounds like boasting. Maybe you could get an academic LOR to mention it.
@@SachinPullil150 thanks Sachin 🙌
Hi Sachin,
Honestly speaking you have given a very clear idea, unlike any other RUclipsr.
So I got one quick question I got 7 CGPA in my Undergrad and have 2+ work experience in the field of IT as a Java developer.
Now let's assume if I got GRE Score anywhere between 315-320. So is that enough to compensate for my GPA or should I focus on other suggestions also which you have mentioned in your video like Research Paper or Projects?
Hi Aditya, thanks! Yes, those scores will help pull up your GPA a little. It's always good to have a little bit of everything so research/projects will help too.
@@SachinPullil150 thanks ☺️
Heyy mate, I’m Gideon and heyy i’m from India. I have a CGPA of 8.3 with no standing arrears looking to secure admission in a top public university in Germany. I have a history of arrears and is it possible to secure a seat in Germany?
Not sure, if GPA is a good criterion in the pandemic. The people I know, who never made it above 6 pointers are scoring 9.9999 cgpa after giving every assessment conducted online. Now, that is unfair.
Is it impossible to get an admit in an ivy league University if you have a backlog?? And in my case I had a backlog in C where my branch is Mechanical..
Can anyone answer this please...
I never had backlogs but neither do I have GREAT gpa(7.3 till 5 semesters)
What can I do in this matter?
You should try to compensate for it as mentioned in the video :)

How do you equate GPAs of different colleges? The difficulty level is very different in different colleges in India and especially those who have studied in top schools in USA. Do they apply the same yard stick to a student with 3.3 GPA from UC Berkeley or a UMich as compared to 3.7 GPA from a college in India. The difficulty level and the grading patterns are way apart. the. How do they compare such cases ??
Hi Sachin, I have a decent academics score (BTech - 78.8%, equivalent to 3.85 GPA), I recently gave my GRE, and scored 316. But my verbal score is just 147, quant is 169. I have performed well in AWA and I am expecting 4 or 4+ in awa. I have 26 months of work experience and published one international paper. Do universities have sectional cuttoffs? I am worried since my verbal score is
Did you got into University??
how University going to know i was top 5 or top 10
The split which you have shown on the video is of B.Tech right???
Like the College I'm in I'll calculate my GPA accordingly...right?
hi, I dont understand the cutoff criteria. how to conver a 77% score to 4.0 scale, my university was not generous with marks, the batch topper score around 85%
Hi Sachin..
My bachelor's GPA is 2.45.. Is there any possibility to select me for a masters degree in Business management ? 😢
Otherwise What should I do to come to ireland for studies ?
I have a 3.12 CGPA and 3.6 gpa in my last 2 sems. I've done BBA, what do I do
Can we still apply with low GRE score and good GPA?
Hi Sachin my gpa is 3.5 in Master degree from chemistry .. is this decent gps decent for applying PhD I really need your reply .. I'll be great full on you
My college had percentage instead of GPA or CGPA... what to do
Is cgpa 3.79 good for meng
I have backlogs (due to busy research) in the current semester, but these will be cleared before I graduate in 2022.
I have -
Unique Research Paper.
Projects.
Good GRE.
Research Internship Experience.
What does matter for my admission?.
Backlogs -?
The backlog will impact your profile a little bit but you otherwise seem to have a good overall one so it should be fine!
Sachin I have a doubt that will universities will just see cgpa or will they give a look at how gpa is actually calculated for certain college or university in which we have pursued our under graduate?? Because the regulations are different for different universities in India. Also regulations have changed from our batch for our college, for our seniors top grade i.e., 10 points in a subject can be achieved by getting 80-100 but for us it changed to 90-100..
Unfortunately, they won't look at it with that much depth. They'll just look at the GPAs of other applicants they've gotten from your university, and other universities in the same Tier.
@@SachinPullil150 thank you for the reply🙂🙂🙂
hello brother
i have 11- 3.30 gpa and 12- 2.85gpa so in average i have 3.10 gpa
can i apply to a university having 3.0 gpa requirment or no ..
does the university see only the 12 result or both ?
Hi Sachin, 12th class gpa is matter in application or not please reply
Nope they dont care.
@@SachinPullil150 thanks 😊
Some universities consider.
It is in eligibility criteria of some universities. Few
What are backlogs???
What is a backlog?
Does midterm of grade 9 matters in gpa ??
I am currently in 2nd year engineering, can I apply now or have to wait to complete the degree?
You can apply in your fourth year.
It will be 4 years gap (after my graduation) if i get admit in fall 2022, I don't have any work experience will this affect my chances of getting a job after MS (in mechanical engineering)?
Hi Meher, yes it may impact your chances because recruiters will ask why you have a large gap in your employment history.
@@SachinPullil150 that means i shouldn't go for masters??? Right?
@@mehers9342 Regardless of whether you have a Master's degree or not, employers will still ask why there's a 4-year gap. It may even be beneficial to get a Master's degree then, since in many cases employers hire MS graduates because of their knowledge and skills through MS, and not prior work experience.
@@SachinPullil150 Thank you sir!
Hi, my cgpa is 9.47 and i have been the topper of my batch. Will this help to increase my admission chances?
Hello bro, I got low GPA during my undergrad but my post-grad GPA are pretty decent & I have a GMAT score of 700. So bro will my undergrad GPA matter anymore & will I get academic points during my profile evaluation & final shortlisting bases on my undergrad GPA or post-grad GPA.
Please reply

Hi
I'm a house wife.I finished my engineering in eee ,2013. Now I want to do masters in the USA. I merely want to know that is there any chances for me to...
I believe so. There should be state universities or community colleges that give people a chance to restart their career with a new degree.
And one more doubt.. am I eligible for computer science course.
Can I bring my husband and children with me while I'm studying in us. And if... What are the pros and cons. Sorry for my grammar.
I'm inspired by ur way of talking and fluency.
How could you managed or learned that much fluency.
How do colleges get to know the GPA of all students from my class?
They don't. They know the range of GPAs of applicants they get from your university, and from universities in the same tier as yours. With this information, they can figure out whether your GPA falls near the top of the application pool, in the middle, or the bottom. Essentially, they compare you with what they've gotten before.
Hi
Is cgpa 3.79 good
@@SachinPullil150 what if my application is highest of all the people who sent grades from my college to that particular university
Well you don't know the current situation what is happening right now due to pandemic for final year , 2nd year and 3rd engineering students who can't build their profile with lack of internship, campus practical classes and working experience if you're the topper of GRE keep this thing yourself go do you're regular job you're still an infant in the corporate world you're points will not help now!!!!!
Even I got a perfect score in gre 340/340 but have a low gpa
nice score buddy.
Damn, did you get in?
Tie is for one batch however the university receive applications from several applications then how to they calculate
Bro I have 6.85CGPA bro
Hi Sachin!
I've had a low gpa and several backlogs in my Engineering degree(6.07 CGPA)
But I've done PGDM in research and business analytics with an average GPA of 8.5.
I've already given IELtS and got a 8 band , GrE is due in the next 15 days.
Just one question, will my PGDM degree GPA be considered or my undergrad? Do they specifically look the undergraduate score or the LAST education score?
They might weigh your PGDM GPA more but they'll look at both.
@@SachinPullil150 thankyou so much for the prompt reply!
What all admits did you get ?
I have 8.2 cgpa if i consider my last year of graduation.
6.5cgpa if i consider all three years of undergrad.
So universities consider your overall cgpa
Or the last year gpa is enough?
Overall CGPA is considered.
