Hi everyone,

I am currently a CS student at Waterloo, my average will be around 75~80 when i graduate. I am in the regular program and i do not have any experience in any company. I plan to do some research next year for about four month.

I want to go to a graduate school major in CS or ECE. Can anyone give me some suggestion about what level university can i go? Can i still maintain study at a top CS school?

thanks in advance.

as great as Waterloo is, my advice would be to mix it up and continue studies at another institution. There's tangible benefit from academic cross-pollination.

With that in mind, U of Toronto is likely to be the best choice for graduate studies.

That is really what i think. I want to try different environment. But i am a little bit not confident about my GPA and research background. According to my background, do you think i have chance to go to UofT or other top CS institutions?

No idea. You should research what kind of things the University would be looking for on your CV from a more authoritative source than random people on an online forum Wink
