I have discovered that I enjoy computer science immensely and I would like to pursue a masters degree in computer Science.
My undergrad was Neuroscience (biology) with a minor in Bioinformatics. I have a 3.2 gpa, and an 77 percentile GRE, which I understand is not amazing but ok. But, I've gotten all A's in any computer science class I have taken, (data structures, algorithms etc.)
I would like to get into the best possible program, for example MIT, I understand this may be unrealistic with my grades and would like to ask what are my options and what should I do to get ready?
Ideas: -Retake the GRE get better score -Take a Comp Science GRE subject test -get real life experience -put code online, open source -Get work experience -Screw the masters get a job
- Retake the GRE get better score
- Take a Comp Science GRE subject test
- get real life experience
- put code online, open source
- Get work experience
- Screw the masters get a job
I'd love to hear what you think is the best choice for setting up a successful career in computer science. Thanks!
