Step 3 - Application Rating

Now that you have filled the obvious, the more important aspect of application rating comes in. Universities prefer students who can demonstrate strong motivation, compassion and have clarity in their ideas & actions. Your application is what communicates these details. Rate your application submissions using our rating guide.

  1. Rate your SOP (Statement of Purpose) on a scale of 1 to 10. The SOP is used by the University to understand your decision, goals, experiences and alingment with the University. A strong SOP can get you a top University abroad even with an average profile. Know how to rate your SOP here.
  2. Rate your LORs (Letters of Recommendation) on a scale of 1 to 10. LORs are essential as they help Universities know how you’ve performed previously, directly through your professors and employers. A strong LOR can increase your chances while a dull one will not enthuse confidence in the chances of your selection. Know how to rate your LORs here.
  3. Extra-Cuurricular Rating – Extra curricular achievements demonstrate your eagerness and ability to perform in diverse spaces. Universities love students who demonstrate a study-play balance in their profile. Know how to rate your Extra-curriculars here.
  4. Community Service Rating – Being compassionate and empathatic are aspects which add value to the culture of the University, hence Universities acknowledge such well rounded individuals. Know how to rate your Community Service here.

Shoot it! And get the results. Get average profiles that have got in and also University wise admits for the course of your choice. This will help you understand profiles that are closest to yours and the kind of admits recieved by them! You can also connect to these peers through Yocket. Try as many times as you wish to and use different combinations till you have a fair idea about your chances.
