Hi,

I just got my GRE scores (Q:166,V:152:) and I have a 2.5 years of professional experience. But I have a very low CGPA. Can you advice me on which universities I can apply in or which ones do I have a chance of getting accepted?

Thanks
 
I have worked as a software developer for a High Frequency Trading software vendor for about 2.5 years. I have a decent knowledge of the market dynamics and have developed a few algo strategies as well.
I graduated from Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay (Electrical Engineering) in 2012 but with a very low CGPA (5.5/10).
Should that be enough?
 
Top 5 would be very difficult. (Solely looking at the scores)
IIT + work-ex is your bonus point here which gives you a great shot at other universities.

Any other questions or assistance, feel free to PM me.
