Gmail - Fwd: Re: Recommendation

Stanford is an excellent University, but it's not the only school in US.
TOEFL is the basic English requirement, not related to academic performance.
Many schools view GRE more important than TOEFL. So my advise
to them is to get more enhancements on GRE Exam. Some schools
may even require GRE subject tests to demonstrate your performance.
UC (University of California) system has very good universities all over the state
of California:
UC Berkeley
UCLA
UCSD (San Diego)
UC Irvine (close to LA)
UC Santa Barbara
UC Davis (between Sacramento and San Francisco)
graduate degrees from any of above will be considered quite prestigious.
Other schools with good IC design programs in the west coast:
LA Area: CalTech, USC (University of Southern California)
Oregon: Oregon State University
Washington: U Washington, Washington State University
Caltech is very difficult to get in (as hard as MIT), but USC should be
much easier (as long as you have $$$)
I hope this info is helpful. My cell phone is 0921781258 effective after
6-28.

Hi Dr Loh,

My company's general manager has two sons both

another just got bachelor degree. Both of them want to

study something related to IC design and the other
want to study image processing. However, their TOFEL

practical experience. May be we can talk to each other
when you are back. Can you g
