Hi,
I am an international student (Eastern Europe) aiming to get to Columbia. GMAT 730 Q49V41, GPA 4.0, 3 years working in Big4, decent recommendations from senior manager and manager, member of Qigong Healthcare Association. I think that my GMAT score is lower than desired and I scheduled a retake of GMAT on the 7th October, the deadline for round 3.
Columbia says that they consider the applications in the order of submission. This means that if I apply on 7th October, my application form will be reviewed among the last ones. An probably, there is a chance that by this time no places will be left.
My question is: is there any way to ensure that my application is reviewed (for example, by asking a current student to recommend me)? Or it is better not to take risk and apply with 730 score?
Thank you!
