Let me guys introduce myself.
My name is Kostas. I was born in Toronto and have been living in Greece since 1992. I have obtained a Bachelor's degree from a Greek University and took the GMAT a week ago. Unfortunately I got a poor 510 but the good thing is that I already know where I went wrong. I prepared very well only in the quantitative and the SC parts of the test. How stupid I am though I never prepared for the Reading Comprehension passages and for sure I got 2 triples and 2 tetrads in the row mistaken in the verbal part and for sure I did a couple of CR questions wrong. So this is enough to explain how I got this mediocre score.
However, I am planning to retake the exam in a couple of months and hopefully I will be able to write a very helpful post for all those who are still striving to win this Test.
I have some queries though about some masters' degrees that I have already applied and it would be very helpful if somebody knows anything about the reputation of these degrees in the US and in Canada of course.
Here's a small list of all the European Universities that I have applied. All the programs are finance degrees.
- Cass Business School
- University of Edinburgh
- University of Amsterdam
- University of Glasgow
- University of Cardiff
Does anybody know anything about the reputation of these schools in the USA and in Canada ? Any suggestions ? I am looking forward to obtain a degree which Canada also acknowledges, in the case of returning back to work there.
I also have one more question. How would you rank the MBA programs of York, McMaster and Ryerson (all in Ontario)?
Any ideas ?
Thanks guys for your time.
If you have any ideas, please feel free to reply.
