hi all,

i took the gmat some days back and got a score of 600. i have a good academic record,i am an IT engineer and have 2 years of full-time wrk-ex. i am looking at colleges in singapore for doing a full-time, 2 year mba course in HR,Strategic planning and organisation or general mba. no finance/mkting/healthcare

which schools should i apply to?and what are the chances? the cut offs for nanyang and nus are 600 but is there a history of admits who have got entry into these two schools on the cut-off score?

please do let me know asap...admission rounds close this month itself.

-thanks
sb

Hi Sneha,

I been given to understand that there are 3 good colleges in Singapore NUS , NTU , SMU

NUS, for example, 31st Jan 09
&
NTU and SMU ( R1 ends on 1st Jan )
NTU === 1st Jan to 31st March 2010

I believe the chances of getting in R 1 as much bright as getting in R 2.
So may apply to one of these,
I am unsure about the GMAT cut - off for these B Schools....

SMU === 1st Jan 2010

"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."
