Didn't really do well in Undergrad - thinking of graduate school

<p>*Here is the thing, guys - I am here because I want to know what I can do to fix this and not because I want you guys to tell me what I already know is wrong with my profile. I was stupid and I was lazy - I messed up.</p>

<p>My plan of action is to take the GRE, Physics GRE and the Math GRE. Do well on them and then request help from the department at my school. If you have any other suggestions, feel free to leave them here. Thanks in advance!*</p>

<p>People are already telling you what you need to do. On a base level, at this point you are not competitive for master’s programs, perhaps with the exception of a few lower-tier programs. Taking the GRE won’t help you much, as the GRE is the least important part of your admissions package and your GPA is far more important than that. Furthermore, don’t waste your money on tests that your programs won’t look at. Find out whether they require the math or physics GRE first. I would be willing to bet that the vast majority of engineering MS programs do not require or recommend the math or physics GRE, so that shouldn’t boost your chances much.</p>

<p>What you should actually do is find a job in your field and work for a few years. Take some graduate classes as a non-degree student to prove that you can perform well at the graduate level. With some time and some As in graduate engineering classes you can try again, although I would wait at least 3 years (so 2 full years of work under your belt, and applying in your third year).</p>
