Admission in Harvard depends on your drive and passion for certain things. While CGPA, work experience, and GRE score matters, they would be also interested in knowing more about your research skills and goals for future. So choose your course first, see their basic requirements and then apply.
All the best.

Hello Vivek,
MIT is the most prestigious university and ranked No.1 in the world.
It is very very difficult to get into MIT with an average profile.
Admission is not guaranteed even if the GRE score is 340/340.
You need to have at least 85-90% or 9+ CGPA in Bachelor's degree.
Apart from these, previous research works, work experience and Journal publications will be an asset to your profile.
Your SOP's and LOR's should be very strong.
There are two intakes : January and September
For the Application deadlines, check the university website.
All the best.

Hello Rajat,
The first and foremost eligibility criteria in most of the US Universities is the 16 years education with a graduate degree. Since you are a BCA graduate, which is a 3 years program, You would have completed only 15 years education in India.
However, few Universities do accept 15 years education. I suggest you to shortlist the universities based on your profile and check for the minimum eligibility criteria and then apply for the universities.

Hello Aishwarya,
Definitely, you can get admission in the American universities as only GRE is not the eligibility criteria. The universities look for the overall profile. But, with this score, you cannot get into top universities. To get admission in Tier-2 universities, your GRE score should be 310 or more as the competition is very high.
I would suggest, you retake GRE exam and try to improve your score in order to strengthen your chances of getting admission in good universities.
All the best.

Dear Amisha,
Please clarify if you indicated University of Cambridge or Cambridge college international. Always be careful with the terminologies as they have different meanings.

It is hard to say especially for business schools like Stanford or Harvard which are two of the world's most selective universities. Evaluations are done holistically and you must build your profile to fit into these schools. A poor performance in UG will not bar you from getting admitted into these schools if you have the right attitude. Yes, you must work very hard to outshine, a brilliant performance in your PG will not guarantee an admission, you will also require a quality work experience and demonstrate high-level leadership skills which again will not guarantee an admission unless you know why so badly you want to get into these

To get into Harvard, your UG result is not enough. Harvard is one of the top business schools, so when you try to get admission, they not only analyze your UG marks, they see a whole picture of you.
For example:
1. The school you studied.
2. The curricular activities, which you have taken. (Essay competition, your participation in essay writing and speech competitions).
3. The college you studied.
You will have a better chance, if you are a medalist from IIT and a you need to have really high score in GMAT and any one of the English proficiency language exams.

The average GRE score for verbal is 155 and quant is 166 as per the latest information, but that's not the only factor to decide. Go through their website to see all requirements.
