SOP & LOR
Experts, however, point out that the admission committee in foreign universities are not
going to reject a student’s application just because their GRE scores are less or they have
less percentage in engineering degree. Industry veterans point out that scores in TOEFL,
GRE and percentages in engineering only reflects the academic strength of the student and
do not provide the student’s overall profile.
In the race to get good scores in GRE and TOEFL, students tend to overlook the importance
that a Letter of Recommendation (LoR) and Statement of Purpose (SOP) play in impressing
the admission committee of university and getting a seat.
“There is literally a race between Chinese and Indian students to get into universities in US,
Germany, UK and other European countries. For a single seat in a programme, at least ten
aspirants from China and India compete. They have same academic records and the only
way out for Indian students is to differentiate themselves from others by making their profile
more balanced. This is where, SOPs and LoR come into picture,” says Arul Joseph, Global
Education Head (R&D), Head, Visu Consultants.
“Even if your TOEFL and GRE scores are less, your fundamentals might be very strong. You
might have pursued your education in a well known institution and have a very good
academic profile. You might have done some research and written scientific papers and got
published in peer review journals. In such situations, an excellent letter of recommendation
will pave the way for admission,” Mr Arul said to the students.

SOP & LOR
SOP is a statement, typically one or two pages in length, that indicates to the university why
is it that you are interested in the program. It also indicates what makes you qualified and
motivated to complete the program. Essentially you are trying to “sell” the university, you are
trying to convince them to accept you over the thousands of other applications they’ve
received. Apart from the factual details such as courses completed, projects accomplished, it
is better if you include some of your personal experiences. Share experiences that motivated
and affirmed the belief in you that further studies are the best approach for you.
