Embedded Systems/VLSI

Hello Aditya,
Please be specific about the university
If you meant about Texas A&M College station, then your GRE score should be 325+ with 100+ in TOEFL. You should have 78% and above in Bachelors.
In case of Texas A&M Kingsville, the competition is pretty less. GRE score between 295-300 will be sufficient.
Texas A&M Corpus Christi is much more easier to get in.
All the best!

You should go for Canadian Universities.

Rather than following your peers and getting worried about it, identify your passion, interest and ability. If you think, you can make your mark in VLSI then go ahead for it. IT is of course most sought after branch but not everyone is getting a job, so decide wisely.

Nowadays every consumer durable and industrial electonic product is micro controller based. There are requirement for embedded systems or product designers. Therefore M.Tech Embedded system has good opportunities and scope. PLC SCADA will restrict opportunities in industrial control design only.
