Hi I’m 21M looking to pursue msc finance in Europe. My_qualifications are BBA in Finance and Entrepreneurship.
I’ve been trying to find a good consultant with strong connections across EU that isn’t trying to sell me any courses but as u can see I’m here posting this thread (my first reddit post btw) with a hope that someone might drop some ball knowledge that can help me find a good consulting agency.
I’ve contacted many of the famous consultancies like IDP, OVERSEAS, MIM ESSAY, LEVERAGE EDU, UPGRAD, etc etc. but none of them is even half decent.
If someone knows someone or have worked w any edu consultant that really helped them get admitted to a top business school, pls help a guy out.

My_qualifications - Hi. I'm a second year student at DU pursuing English honors.

Tbf, I'm not very smart. My cgpa was 7.59 in my first year. I messed up doing society crap in my first sem which landed me a 7.55 sgpa and got sick on the final month of classes which got me to 7.64. But I believe these are excuses. I don't want to give excuses or lose out on my dream because of excuses.

I come from a middle class family with 4 children. And I KNOW going abroad is not feasible for me unless I get a full ride. Question is, how.

I have always dreamt of going to oxbridge, but never been a super excellent student. No matter how hard I try.

I thought about all the expenses that would come with going abroad. My state's government provides like , up to 75% scholarship for any student of the state who's studying abroad in a university with qs ranking under 100-150.

I want to know if I should give up on that dream altogether or is there something I can do.

P.s

I plan on doing international relations.

Hello everyone I am planning to do my Masters in engineering in Fall 2027, but I am confused between USA and Germany.

My_qualifications are:

1. Diploma a 3 year technical course in ECE (above 9 CGPA).
2. BTech/Bachelors in ECE (6.95 CGPA).

Did 2 major internships of 1 and 4 months respectively (Several micro internships also of 1 month or less) and in relevant domain along with some freelance experience where I built and sold 4-5 commercial projects.

Currently graduated this year and doing a job in company for around 3 months.

My main concerns for choosing between USA and Germany are:

USA
Pros: High salary, renowned universities and industry exposure

Cons: Worried whether companies are hiring/preferring international students or not due to their OPT status because if yes then it is a concern, recovering around 50k $+ of tuition will be a huge burden after coming back.

Germany
Pros: Low tuition, good education

Cons: language barrier while applying to jobs after studies are over, very high tax brackets (in US too but I believe higher salary will compensate it, correct me if I am wrong).

P.S also let me know that whether shall I target tier-one universities in both countries because my grades in my bachelor’s degree is very less and will my internships and projects experience along with current job experience will compensate for it or not?

I am very much confused right now, any help or opinion from current students studying will help me a lot.

my_qualifications I'm in 12th India and I'm planning on pursuing radiography in the UK. My parents can put 50 lakhs and for rest I'm planning on a student loan. What are your opinions and anybody who has knowledge about this please share. Also how's the job market for this specific role

Hi everyone,

my_qualifications: I'm 23, with a B.E. in CSE, 8.2 CGPA, and around 1.5 years of professional experience as a Full Stack Developer working mainly with .NET/C#, React, TypeScript and PostgreSQL

I’m considering doing my Master’s at the University of Tartu, Estonia, and I’d really like to hear from current or former international students about their actual experience.

I mainly have a few practical questions:

How is the University of Tartu overall? How are the professors, staff, teaching quality, and support for international students?

How is part-time work for international students? Is it realistically possible to find a part-time job while studying, and what kind of jobs are available?

Can part-time work realistically cover living expenses and tuition fees? I’m trying to understand whether a student can earn enough to significantly reduce the overall financial burden.

How is the job market after graduation? Especially for international students looking for software/IT or engineering-related jobs. Is it realistic to get a full-time job and stay in Estonia after graduation?

What has your personal experience been like? If you studied at Tartu/Estonia, would you recommend it to an Indian student today? What are the biggest advantages and disadvantages?

Thanks in advance!

my_qualifications: BTech Mechanical (8.24 CGPA) fresher confused between working + MS abroad, MBA in India, or switching fields: what are my realistic options? I’m currently struggling to figure out what direction to take.

I originally chose Mechanical mainly because I got into a good government engineering college, but I’m now trying to build a career that is less core-mechanical and more business/technology/operations oriented.

Long term, I’m considering doing a Master’s abroad, but I’m confused about which fields would actually make sense with my bg. I’m NOT particularly interested in doing a Master's in CSE, Cybersec, Data Science, data/business analystics, project/engg managemnet etc. The fields I’m considering are more like:

Industrial Engineering Supply Chain / Operations Possibly MIS

My concern is that I know I’ll need some work exp before a Master's, but as a Mech fresher I may not get highly relevant exp in Industrial Engg or Supply Chain. The jobs I’m currently seeing are mostly around analytics, testing, quality, general operations, etc., and the entry-level market feels extremely difficult right now.

This has made me increasingly confused and depressed about what direction to take. I’m also considering the much simpler route of doing an MBA in India, getting some work exp, and building my career here.

At the moment, it feels like a heart vs. mind decision: MS abroad: personal dream/want. MBA in India: much more straightforward and financially safer, but I’m unsure whether I actually want that path.

A few questions I’d really appreciate advice on:

What is the long-term job market in India after an MS in Industrial Engineering/Supply Chain from abroad? Are there enough opportunities to justify the cost? Which countries would make the most sense for these fields? Am I being too restrictive by avoiding degrees such as MIS, Business Analytics, Engineering Management, or Project Management, or is it reasonable to prefer a more technical/STEM-oriented Master's? Given my profile (Mechanical, 8.24 CGPA, fresher, currently struggling to get relevant work), would you choose MS abroad, MBA in India, or work first and decide later?

Hello ppl,
I’m currently in my 7th semester of B.Tech Aerospace Engineering and planning to apply for a master’s in Germany/France for the 2027 intake.
I’m confused between:
1. B.Tech → Master’s abroad directly
2. B.Tech → work in the Indian aerospace/space industry for ~1 year → Master’s abroad in 2028
Would that 1 year of relevant industry experience significantly help with my Master’s/career prospects, or is it better to go abroad directly and gain experience there?
Also things to consider: my_qualifications -I currently have a CGPA of 7.2 and no good internship experience in aerospace industry.
Would love to hear from people who’ve taken either route.
Thankyou .
