Hi

I am an Indian applicant who got 99 percentile on TOEFL (117/120).

DO you think it is wise to add this point to the Additional INFO section of my MBA application resume , considering resume length is not an issue at the college?

Thanks in advance.

Hehe.

I wish that is true as my GMAT verbal score doesn't match this 99 percentile I got in TOEFL.

Anyways thanks for your advice.

It cannot hurt, but will most likely not help. You would normally mention your TOEFL score, if the language of your undergraduate instruction was not English.

Good luck with your applications,

Yeah, you can add it if you'd like but I don't see it really adding much value. If it is the adcom reading the resume, they'll have your overall application which will have your TOEFL score already. If it's someone interviewing you, well, you'll be speaking to them. Think about the opportunity cost of that bullet and if there is something more interesting you could add to that space, perhaps use it for something a bit more interesting!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
