What country (or countries) are you considering?

[heman]

i am considering whole world.

USA: MIT, Caltech, Stanford, Carnegie Mellon, U of Illinois Urbana Champagne and UC Berkeley.
Canada: Waterloo, U of Toronoto, McGill and Queen's.
UK: Cambridge and U of Edinburgh.

That's my opinion, of course.

I'll second UC Berkeley. Excellent reputation.

Heman, I was just wondering...does the IIT campuses have a PhD program? If it does maybe you can continue there itself...IIT has a very good reputation.

Carnegie Mellon is the top institute for CS in many rankings.
