    Hi
    I am new to this site and found it really informative. Great work Ajay.
    I am planning to apply for MS in CS for Spring 2013.
    I am yet to take my GRE and TOEFL (I know am late) but I will be done with both of them before the end of July.
    I am hopeful to get 105+ in TOEFL and 300-310 (considering my prep so far) in GRE.

    My Profile:
    10th: 87%
    12th: 66%
    B.E. in CS: 67%
    Work Ex: 4.8 years in Infosys
    Decent number of extra curricular activities during college. Below is my complete profile:
    Gaurav Varshikar | LinkedIn

    Can you please suggest which all universities should I be targetting?
    Which universities will be ambitious (A), moderate(M), safe(S)?
    I am planning to apply to around 8-10 universities and I will be going with a 4-2-2 (A-M-S) strategy.

    Thanks in advance.
    Gaurav
