Hello,

I have BA from Accredited US Institution, located outside US. My GPA was 3.5 and i received Cum Laude Honors. i had full scholarship.

I would want to study for Master of Finance at University of Edinburgh, or at Cambridge. I think i have no chances to get in LSE or Said Business school.... .
my question is:
1. what is minimum gmat that i need to get in either of those mentioned univeristies?
2. would i get any advantage as citizen from developing country? (republic of georgia)
3. what kind of reccomendation letters i need? i finished school 4 years ago, and i am completely positive that noone from my professors remember me by now.

thanks for help i really appreciate it

1) I do not know of a GMAT cut off for these schools - most schools do not have one.
2) They will certainly take your background and home country into consideration. All of these things will contrinute to their evaluation.
3) You should use a professional recommendation, from your current employer.

"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."
