Hi.


I'm 24 years old and have a 5 year degree in law from Nagpur university and 5 years of experience in Retailing as a store manager (Times of India Group-Times Retail).

My GMAT unofficial score is 600(i'm sure my AWA will be 5+ and my TOEFL will be 100+)

I have graduated in the top 1% of my university. (Infact I was placed 3rd from over 500 students of law). Could you please tell me what are my chances of being accepted in the Ohio State University for Fall 2008?

{{I'm applying to
Ohio State University's Fisher School
university of North Texas,Denton
university of Dayton
University of Toledo}}

Dear rjvallari.mirchi,

It is always hard to predict someone's chances when you do not have the entire application nor access to a school's applicant pool. Generally speaking, if you are at or above the school's GMAT and GPA averages, have strong recommendations, demonstrate career progression and effectively communicated the answers to the essay questions, then you should have a pretty good chance of being admitted. If you are not at the GMAT/GPA averages, then your chances diminish. I think Ohio State is quite a bit of a stretch for you but your chances at the other schools listed are better.

Good luck,
Lisa
