I am very happy to receive all your doubts and questions regarding "Studying in Germany".

I completely understand your situation, because 2 years back I was also like you. Do not hesitate to comment your questions and doubt, I will do my level best to clarify it.

      Embedded Systems course is good. You have lot of options in fields like Image processing, RTS, EDA, Networking, etc., Since it is a "technical university", there are many research opportunities as well.

      I would suggest not to worry about job opportunities at this stage.

      Hello Saransh,
      My knowledge is limited in the field of Medicine. As far as I know, most of the medical courses are in German language and I suggest you to approach DAAD office in your city for further details, because they will have a better understanding and can help you a lot more.

      All the best for your career

      Hello,

      Pursuing a Masters studies will always be "worthy", if you're sincere and have a real passion towards the subject/field. I have to warn you that, doing Masters isn't a piece of cake; you have to struggle hard and face many difficulties in terms.

      Regarding the job prospects in Germany, kindly have a look at this article:

      Hello Yamini,

      The below answer is completely according to my experiences and observations, also the choices are my personal opinions.

      Between Jena & Magdeburg, I would prefer Magdeburg. If you get the other two courses, then I would choose TU Chemnitz(I am from TUC). I know more about the Embedded Systems course in TU Chemnitz and I feel it is good, considering all the other aspects.

      I have limited knowledge about Rostock.

      Hello Vasudha,

      In reality, no one knows whether the university will consider GRE is the CGPA is low and there is no proof for that statement.

      I suggest you to go through the course modules and subjects, check out the opportunities and then if you're still determined to join that course, then give GRE. Because, if you really want that particular course, then you need to give your best shot at it.

      P.S: This is just my personal opinion. The final decision is with you

      You can apply to universities, but I doubt about the Scholarships. Because, the scholarships need 'excellent' marks/grades. Also, since the German universities aren't going to cost you a lot, many students study without Scholarships

Job scenario in Germany | Will I get a job after Masters studies? | Jobs in Germany

Job scenario in Germany Getting a job after Masters degree is an important aspect that many aspirants are worried about, some think it as a "return of investment" and some think it as a next-step in their career. If you are one of them and thinking about the job scenarios, then don't worry you are not alone. Even I was like you, when I started applying for Universities to pursue Masters in Germany. The main worry would be about, spending around 10-15k Euros, 2-3 years to get a Masters degree and then being jobless - YES, it would be a nightmare and completely understand it. But now for me, after staying in Germany I would say that, I was worrying too much about jobs while applying to Masters courses and allow me to walk you through why I feel this way.  The reason why I am writing about this topic is because, I am an active user in Quora  and I see lot of questions regarding "Job scenario for Masters students in Germany", "Job scenario for Mec...

Why you should goto Consultancies! (Pun intended)

By Admin
Everyone are applying for higher studies and going abroad! Many apply on their own, some ask their friends for help, but most of them apply via Consultancies. I am here to explain you, what really happens when you go to consultancies. ~This post is only relatable, if you are applying for Europe or Germany. ~ ~I know this is a long post, please read till the end~ Image source: Google #1 University selections: The consultancies will tell you that, your grades are comparatively low. You can apply for 5 universities and they will take care of the rest and get you an admission. Reality:   The consultancies will not guide you in anyway. They do not know anything about the University or the course. They will not understand your area of specialization or your career interest. Their main aim is to get you one admit and send you off. What you need?: You do not need any consultancy to help you, you need only some advice and guidance from the people who are already in German...

Which country is better? Germany VS Singapore | Masters studies | MS course

By Admin
Germany VS Singapore Deciding a path to choose, when you have lot of options in hand is very difficult. When you are applying for Masters studies, there would be a lot of confusion in terms of which country to apply for and there was a question in Quora regarding Germany VS Singapore. Trust me, even I was in the same dilemma when I wanted to pursue my Masters course. Let me throw some light on the analysis that I had done, based on my experience in Germany(Masters studies) and my observations from my friends who are studying in Singapore. Climate:   Are you a person who likes Winters to be cold(around 0 degree Celsius)? Are you a person who likes to just have 2 months of Summer? If you’re from a tropical country, then there is high possibility that you will not like Germany’s climate, but on the other hand Singapore has similar tropical conditions, which makes it easier to adapt.  Winner:  Singapore Course duration:  Most of the courses...
