Is it safe to take the GRE test at home??

THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM:- ETS has been canceling many GRE scores which are taken from the home. The worst part is that they DO NOT mention the exact reason for the said cancellation. Most of the time, it could be because of intended malpractice during the test. But there could be cases, where your test scores might be canceled due to technical faults (like VPN fault, alternating tabs by mistake, faulty cache, and so on). That being said, you are investing a huge amount of time and money in your abroad education, if your GRE scores get canceled after you have completed your entire application process(which itself costs a lumpsum amount), and even worse, if they are canceled after you have secured your admits and paid the deposit, this could become your worst nightmare. So, choose wisely. Think about the pros and cons. Decide if taking a home-based GRE is absolutely necessary for you. Having said that, What are the factors that determine your choice of taking the test at home or waiting for centers to become operational? There are many questions that need to be considered before opting for a home-based GRE. Q1: Do you have computers, connectivity, and an ambiance that meet GRE home requirement? The requirement is not uncommon. Computing Requirement: Any good laptop that runs Windows 7 or 8 or 10 should be sufficient. Conversely, if you have a desktop PC, you should have access to an external microphone, webcam, and a speaker. WFH with office laptops: If you have taken your work laptop home for WFH, visit GRE’s website and check whether you are able to install the ETS browser. In many companies, the sysadmin would have disabled the ability to install any external software on the official laptops. Check and verify that you will be able to use the software on your machine before registering for the GRE. Connectivity Requirement: Any decent broadband connection should do the job. If you have a 2 MBPS plus broadband connectivity that is usually stable, it should tick the box as far as connectivity goes. However, if you live in a place where wired broadband is not available and you depend on mobile Internet, I will recommend that you find an alternative. It could be getting wifi access from a neighbor who has wired broadband for the duration of the test. If such an alternative is not possible because you have moved back to your hometown (during lock down) where decent broadband is not available, wait for the test centers to become operational. Or, at least, wait till you get back to your college or workplace where connectivity is better. Ambiance: Do you have a reasonably silent room that is clutter-free with a desk and chair to take a 4-hour exam? If so, the home-based testing will work for you. On the other hand, if you live in a shared paying guest accommodation, you should probably not think about taking the GRE at-home version. If you live in a comfortable house with an independent room for yourself, I think you should complete your GRE at home before the test centers open up and the option to take the GRE at home ceases to exist. You are unlikely to get any better ambiance in any test center that matches your own independent room. Q2. Are there any game-changing differences between the two formats? Yes, there are a few differences in the test administration process based on which format you choose. However, the fact is that there is not a single game-changing difference in the way GRE has opted to offer the GRE at home. You still have to complete two sections each of Analytical writing, verbal, and quantitative reasoning in the home-based version. You get to do all calculations either on a transparent paper and a marker or on a whiteboard with a marker (you need not choose the whiteboard option). So, to that extent the test experience is almost the same as you will find in a center - only made better without any potential annoyance from another test taker next to you. You have the option to take a retest should the first attempt result in a lower score. So, I do not see any point in not opting for the GRE at home if you checked the boxes about the system and ambiance requirement. That's it, folks! Hope this article helped you. All the very best for your application process! #studyabroad #greathome #greprepare #masters #ms #USA #Canada #universityselection #applicationprocess #community_mentor #CM #CommunityMentor #studyguide

Master's Degrees that require little or no coding to enter the tech industry Part -1

1.Industrial Engineering (Coding level : Least or Null) It is an engineering field that is concerned with the optimization of complex processes, systems, or organizations by developing, improving and implementing integrated systems of people, money, knowledge, information, and equipment. According to U.S. Bureau of Labour Statistics Industrial engineers' employment is projected to grow 14 percent from 2020 to 2030, faster than the average for all occupations. Industrial engineering can be considered as a liquid branch of engineering, i.e. Each & Every Office Requires an Industrial Engineer and is Not Fixated to only certain Aspects of work. Industrial Engineering is a heavy Maths Centric Masters, so one can expect to study a lot of statistics and Linear Math subjects and you have Options To Learn R or Python as Part of the Syllabus. This is one of the Best alternative degrees for Aspiring Data Enthusiasts. Engineering Management is a Sub Branch of Industrial Engineering which is also called MBA for Engineers, which equips an engineer for managerial roles. Here are a few tech fields one can expect to work in after graduating as an industrial engineer: *Data Analyst/Business Analyst ( $72,250) *Data Scientist ( $102,000) *Product Management ( $113,000) *Project Management ( $77,000) *Business/ Tech Consultant ( $105,000) *Sales Engineer ( $86,000) Here Are Few Best Colleges to Pursue IE From - Gatech Purdue UC Berkeley TAMU Virginia Tech U Mich Ann Arbor Stanford MIT Penn State ASU U of Florida U of Wisconsin Madison Here Are Few Best Colleges to Pursue MEM From - ALL MEMPC Colleges Northeastern University NCSU Columbia University 2. Management Information Systems {MIS} (Coding Level : Least) MIS is the only major that focuses on both business processes and information technology. If you are interested in business and technology, like theory but not too much, like technology enough to want to keep up with what's hot but don't want to be writing programs or putting together chips all your life, then MIS is for you MIS is one of the best alternatives to an MBA for an aspiring tech manager, and In some colleges, MIS is offered as a MBA Sub Track. It is usually offered by a business school. Anyone can Apply to this Course irrespective of his/her bachelor's degree, provided that they fulfil the prerequisite criteria of the Program. According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the median salary of Information Systems Managers is US $139,220. Also, the future outlook in this field is also bright, as the projected growth from 2016-2026 is 12%. Whereas the growth for Management Analysts is pegged at 14% which is more than 1 lakh new jobs. MIS degrees are classified as STEM degrees by most of the universities . Few Job Roles which MIS Graduates Get are : *Information Security Manager ($138,000) *Technical Program Manager ($115,000) *Product Manager ($113,000) *Software Developer ($118,000) *Data Analyst ($ 72,000) *Systems Analyst ($93,000) Here Are Few Best Colleges to Pursue MIS From - UC Berkeley University of Arizona (Eller) UTD Northeastern University Carnegie mellon MIT Sloan NYU Indiana University Wharton UMCP Gatech UT Austin 3. UI/UX or Human Computer Interaction (Coding Level : Least) Human-computer interaction (HCI) is a multidisciplinary field of study focusing on the design, of computer technology and, in particular, the interaction between humans (the users) and computers. While initially concerned with computers, HCI has since expanded to cover almost all forms of information technology design. Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) will give you the skills to properly understand, and design, the relationship between the “humans”, on one side, and the “computers” (websites, apps, products, services, etc.), on the other hand. the Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts the IT and Design-related occupations will grow by 12% from 2014–2024 After graduation from HCI, one can expect to land one of the jobs mentioned. - *ICT Project Manager ($93,000) *HCI Consultant ( $85,000) *Multimedia Designer ($ 54,000) *UX Professional ($109,000) *IOT Designer ($131,000) *UX researcher ($110,000) Here Are Few Best Colleges to Pursue HCI From - CMU U of Washington Gatech UMCP UMBC CU Boulder UIUC Oregon State University Drexel UC Irvine Tufts Clemson UCSD UNCC #masters #ms #usa
