Which German universities can I realistically get into with a German GPA of 1.8?
Hi everyone,
I'm an international student planning to apply for a Master's in Data Science or Computer Science in Germany. My converted German GPA is 1.8.
I'm trying to build a smart application list instead of applying to dozens of universities and spending a lot of money on application fees and document processing.
With a 1.8 GPA:
- Can I realistically get into top universities (e.g., TUM, RWTH Aachen, Heidelberg, etc.)?
- Or should I focus more on mid-tier universities?
- Which universities would you recommend I have a good chance at for Data Science or Computer Science?
I'd really appreciate hearing from people who had a similar GPA or went through the admissions process.
Thanks!
