Hi Stacy,
Thank you for your expert opinion and very interesting/useful tips in this forum.
Could you please evaluate my profile and chance for HAAS, CBS, UT Austin, and USC?
Personal Profile: Japanese female, 30 years old, a mother
GPA: Undergraduate 3.5 from a top university in Japan, Graduate 3.7 from a top university in Korea
Toefl (iBT): 112
GMAT: 690 (Q 48, V 37)
Past Experience: A certified fraud examiner (CFE) working in risk management and fraud investigation. Dealt many security cases such as organized crime syndicates involvement, international economy espionage, nuclear trading, etc.
International experience: Lived and worked in 5 different countries, fluent in 3 languages
I am also interested to know the following:
1) I did not take any quantitative courses in my undergraduate program. Given that Haas states in its website "All applicants should have completed, at a minimum, a college-level mathematics or statistics course" and that "the Admissions Committee looks carefully at quantitative proficiency when making its admissions decisions", do you recommend that retaking GMAT to improve my Quantitative score (It is 48 now) or taking pre-MBA extension courses, which will delay my application to Round 2 (Right now, I am aiming to make Round 1).
2) I already took GMAT tree times. Is it a bad idea to take GMAT more than 3 time?
3) How does the fact that I am an international student (US permanent resident but citizenship in Japan) affect my candidacy?
Thank you very much!!
