After you did your work, You could find out the reservoir engineering esp programming skills such as C++, fortune Unix, Linux etc. is probably the most important experience in you CV. I saw you applied for a master degree. From application ‘s prospective, it’s quite different from phd. However, the above rule does apply . Also, you should have a sharp gpa (top1 in 40 students class, top 2 in 80 students ... and gre q (167+) & awa (4+) to be considered as Qualified . international students are required to have proficient English skills. TOFEL :105+. All the numbers I listed here come from 300+ Work I did for the application, and it’s possibly close to their screening line.
