Before you read further, please note that although some questions may seem "silly" to you, but there are many others who do not know the answers. So, we have answered even the silliest questions in this post and if you already know answers for some of the questions, please skip and move onto the next.

Q: I have job experience in a different field and right now I am apply for Embedded course. Will it affect my chances?
A:
Invariably no. It depends on how you portray your experience. You need to mention that you have more passion towards Embedded course, which is why you are opting for pursuing Masters.

Q: Will I be able to complete the course in 2 years?
A:
You need to answer that question. I am afraid, it varies from person to person. 

Q: Will I get VISA if my course extends to 3 years?
A:
Yes, you will get VISA. But you need to show 8000euros(approx.) for getting the VISA.

Q: Are there online German courses with less fees?
A:
I am sad to say that, most of the universities accept only the certificates from Goether institutes and thus, you need to take either the weekend course, crash course or some course according to your availability.

Q: There are two deadlines in the course webpage, which one should I take notice?
A:
Most of the German univs will have separate deadlines for EU students and Other students. If you are coming from EU countries, then look for the EU deadline; if not, then the other deadline is for you.
