Hi, the information that you have shared is a little incomplete. It really depends on what specialization you are going to take and in which college. Your GRE score is good and so is your IELTS band. If your research based project is related to what you are going to do your specialization in then the chances of you getting into the good universities are high. You can try for UK as well but most of the courses in UK are of 1 year and masters of 1 year is not globally accepted. So, if you are planning to come back to India at some point with your Masters degree or at any other place for that mater the certificate won't be valid as 1 year masters are not globally accepted. So, it is always better to weigh your chances and future and then select what is the best option for you. Thank you. All the best!

Shiva saketh Hi, there are a lot of universities who are not taking GRE because of Covid. So, you can try some universities are MIT, Columbia University, University of California- Berkeley, University of Pennsylvania. Yes, you will get a shot in decent unis. I am no soothsayer so try your best.
