Dear DavidLynch,

While your work experience and extracurriculars are interesting, I am concerned that your GMAT, GPA and TOEFL are on the low side relative to the international applicant pool for your target schools. It is possible you have a shot with a great set of essays and recommendations, as well as an outstanding interview, but I do think it is possible you might not get a chance to interview based on your academic profile. I encourage you to retake your GMAT and TOEFL to try and raise them into a more competitive position. If you could increase your GMAT to at least a 680 and your TOEFL to at least a 275, then you would be closer to the average for these programs. Ideally, you want to have your test scores above the average for the school to be in the best position.

Good luck,
Lisa

Dear Mrs. Anderson

First of all thank you for your detailed explanation. I guess i'd not think that my chances were so slim as you said above so i am a little upset right now :) UC Irvine , Texas Austin may be hard but ROTMAN and Rotterdam universities averaga GMAT score (let alone mid %20 range) is nearly equal to me so i thought that i have a pretty good chance with a well-prepared application. But now i think that my E.Curr and Work Exp . are not very "interesting" as you said. Thanks again for your response.
