Dear All,
Your views on my score and chances to get enrolled in NYU?
I have a 10 years work experience with a large organization, and a engineering background.

Thanks
Sidds

Probably not great but, as I was just reading on Tepper's (Carnegie Mellon's business school) website, remember that folks that roughly half the people in an incoming business school class have scores that are below the mean...

Your big variables, I think, are going to be quality of work experience, quality of recommendations, and the reason for the (relative to the NYU applicant population) low score. Is there something that you can do to get it up a bit higher?

Cheers--

Paxton
