<p>@Alvians Hey! I don’t really know about this Australian education system but with some knowledge i think your ATAR is not enough for HKU/HKUST. I mean i have seen many applicants to HKU with 99.4 ATAR so i guess they are more competitive. But give it a try and we can be surprised by your decision :D</p>

<p>Hello guys, I am Mukul</p>
<p>I am looking at HKU for doing my Msc in Computer Science. I am planning to hit the september 2013 session. I know about HKU medical and business school, their reputation. But not much about HKU/ST reputation for Engineering and more particularly Computer Science. Any inputs ??</p>
<p>My background</p>
<p>Indian
Currently working as Software Engineer at CSC (August 2011 to Present)
B.tech in CS with 76%
12th - 91.4%
10th - 82.6%</p>
<p>I have not appeared for GRE/TOEFL yet. I think GRE is not required for HKU/HKUST right? </p>
<p>Looking at data above, could someone suggest my chances of getting into HKU n HKUST ? </p>
<p>There are couple of more things that I am confused about. How are jobs in HK? I mean what package can I expect to hit if I do my MSc from either of these universities? </p>
<p>Also, like students can work part time in canada/the states/singapore etc. Is there similar stuff in HK as well? </p>
<p>Moreover the major discuss over here is HKU/HKUST. So which would be better to pursue Masters in computer science?</p>
<p>Would really appreciate your response.</p>
<p>yes for those in my school</p>

<p>@HKApplicant me too, but I only applied for HKU. This long process of waiting is really killing me!! T.T</p>
<p>@HKApplicant & elisexia
The same goes for me too… I applied for the business programs through fast track for both HKUST and HKU but did not get any answers yet. I wish at least one of them will come out in January.</p>
<p>Excuse me, I have a question: Do ALL applicants of HKU/CUHK/HKUST/CityU HAVE to take A-Level/IB? Or is it just only for those students taking those programs?</p>
<p>@willa96
