Dear Divya, I'm delighted to know that you're thinking about applying for Engineering at Imperial College where I graduated from. I'm more than happy to assist you in every possible way. If you want to know about my course, I had taken Computer Science as my specialization subject. Overall the quality of the course exceeded my expectations and it taught me in detail about the tips and techniques to write good programs. We were taught more than 4 programming languages as well as the theoretical aspects behind them. I'd recommend Imperial's because it is among the top 10 universities in India. It has the most experienced faculties, particularly in Computer Science and the most interesting part is you can modify your subjects based on your preference. If you decide to apply, I'd recommend you start preparing right away. The entrance tests are quite competitive and you must submit your application by the
first
week of November. Don't forget to prepare your reference letters as you need them during your admissions. All the best and please don't hesitate to contact me for any information you need. Regards, Deepika
