Maximum changes to get RA / TA in the university as we fit inputs of student to University.

DEMO – CONFIGURATION FOR UNIVERSITY SELECTION TOOL

• A Demo version with: 10 Universities, only for MIS, and 6 research areas has been made in an excel file.

• Best Research University depends on research area and not student's GRE score, although it considers GRE score if it can impact the overall average.

• Feed input for a student in input sheet Normal Composite score of 175 is best and 155 is lowest for getting into Rank 1 and Rank 50 respectively as per US News.

• 175-155 Score stands for best profile to weakest.

• If Research published: Weight age for GRE = 33% and Research match is given 67% weight age or else equally weighted.

• A complete tool based on scientific analysis of student profile & effective to generate the perfect university match.
