Admissions Success Stories

Hello everyone,

I have been a great beneficiary of all the resources on this social network for about a year now. Kudos to Eric and the rest of the team. You helped make my dream to attend Business School possible.

I began studying for the GMAT last year April, but until I discovered this site, I didn't study so well. I was able to learn about the best materials to study with, so I eventually bought the 12th edition, Kaplan series, and the CR Bible.

To cut the long story short, I used the CR Bible( very good material), Manhattan SC, and the E-gmat tutorials. The e-gmat was very good. I didn't just learn to answer SC questions, I got to understand the whole concept for SC, and I felt more confident after taking the course. My GMAT scores were 620,and 640.

I applied for the Early Decision of Fuqua Business School and was wait listed in early December. I waited all through till May 10. All through the wait, I sent in another recommendation, and updated my resume. If I am asked what strategy I used, I would reply that I ensured that I followed through on all the suggestions I was given.

The wait was very long, but I am finally in, despite not having the magical >700 score and being an International applicant.

I am very grateful to God, the entire BTG team, and the e-gmat tutors. You all helped me to give my best to the application process, and I succeeded.

A little bit about myself: I am from Nigeria, a medical doctor with 2years work experience at the time of my application, born again, spirit-filled christian, and was attracted to the HSM program in Fuqua.

Thanks everyone, and to those still working at their applications, give your best shot, and don't give up.

Congrats Emiflo.

Thanks a lot for coming back and sharing your story here.

Congrats!!
