Hello,

First, think critically about your interviews. Since you got interview invites at the schools you mention, you must have been doing something right in your application. Did you perform well in the interviews or was that a weak point?

Ultimately your application to these top schools has to be more than competent, however. To win you admission it has to generate excitement and interest on the part of the adcom. Did you present your case as effectively as possible – in other words, did you go beyond making a solid, rational case to make a compelling case?

For reapplications, first you should beef up your extracurricular involvement, ideally taking a leadership role in some capacity. Also, adcoms want to see growth in reapplicants, so look for ways at work to expand your impact, your leadership, and/or your exposure to different areas and types of challenges.

Best regards,

"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."
