Hello,

Can anyone please shed some light on how the recommendation submission process works? Once I list recommenders in my application and hit submit, would they be automatically contacted? Would they be provided a link to go and upload recommendation letter? Would they have to do anything else - like fill out a ratings matrix etc.?

Thanks.

Yes, once you add their names in, it sends off a notification. Sometimes they can go to spam or be stopped by firewalls so FYI. As for rankings matrix, that depends on the school.

Hope that helps!

Hi topspin360,
After you register your recommenders in your online application, they will get an email with instructions on how to submit the recommendation. Of course you should tell them in advance.
The nature of recommendation varies between schools, but usually your recommenders will have to answer some questions and fill out an evaluation grid.

"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."
