Hello,

I have a question regarding contact information for our references. Is it ok to use an international cell phone number as the contact number for one of my references?

Thanks,
SW

Hi Dana,

I was finally able to make it just before the deadline. I was little worried as I didn't get any acknowledgement/email for the submission. I request you to please check and let me know if the submission has been received properly.

Thanks,

Hey everyone, you do NOT receive confirmation emails. If you saw the "Thank you" screen, then you're all good. Both of your applications were received.

Can't wait to see the results for this.
Was a fantastic experience applying for it. Thank you "Beat the GMAT" for coming out with this.
Post the application, I'm even more determined to go ahead and get a 750 plus in GMAT and an MBA thereafter in a great school.
Thanks,
Vinay
