Hello,
I am very happy to report that today I have received an admit from the MBA college of my choice.
I started out my journey with a GMAT score of 560 during my first attempt in Dec 2008. Thereafter, I decided to retake the GMAT but to my surprise received an even lower score of 540.
However, I did apply to five schools and have also selected by 2 MBA schools. One of them is American University - Kogod School of Business in Washington DC. I have also received a scholership of 3500$ per semester or 14,000$ (25%) of the MBA program covered over 2 years.
I also received a mail from Baruch College on 28th May requesting for a phone interview. I must say, the phone interview was very tough (according to me) as the questions were quite complicated. I had to make split scond decisions but all in all faired pretty well on the interview. Sounding confident is the key. You have to be focussed !
So I just received a mail from Baruch witihin 24hrs of my phone interview. I have received an admit to the Full Time Honors progran at Baruch - Zicklin School of Business.
I feel really proud of myself today and I can say with pride that your GMAT score is not all that matters. I am sure 560 is pretty low for Baruch considering I had applied in the last and final round. My essays were steller and my interview was fantastic. I believe the phone interview plays a BIG part in the MBA admissions. This is my dream college. I live in India and need to get to NY by Aug 3rd !!
However, I have not received a scholership yet. I still have to hear from Fordham and Pace in the coming week. I also needed to know, is it okay for me to ask Barcuh college directly for a Scholership or Graduate Assistanship. Baruch has incresed the FEE structure by 15% this year and I really need some kind of scholership to begin my journey. Would you know if they would maybe send me another mail regarding my scholership. Im very skeptical to ask them directly. Do let me know your view
Thanks very much for all the wondeful posts. I have been a silent observer here. This website has the best resources.
Cheers
