Recently I applied for masters in germany  for a total of 10+ universities, and get rejected by each and every one of them.  I believe that my low grades (2nd class lower, equivalent to a C grade) are the primary reasons why noone would take me. I feel so sad as I spend so much time and effort in doing additional test, the GRE and also the IELTS (both of which has good scores (GRE- 314, IELTS 7.5), in addition to my 5 year working experience in a manufacturing industry, (though not a MNC).

At one point, I feel like killing myself. Luckily the feeling pass away quickly. I just don't know what I should do. I can continue working, and hopefully change jobs to a more meaningful one, but at this point, I just want to improve my knowledge skills in a german university, and also gain some networking opportunities, and I can't see myself doing that changing jobs.

I sincerely asked that people who are in a similar experience or knows someone like me to please give me some guidance.

I'm doing engineering, and would like to explore my options in the technical fields, such as mechatronics, electronics, or even computer science. If there is no way, I guess I can do management with engineering masters. My background is Mechatronic Engineering.

are you interested in coursework based or research based? as far as I know, research based is not that strict for local unis.

maybe you could try msc in local uni through research mode as a start. once you have obtained msc, i believe you can have an easier pathway for overseas uni to do your phd.
