Choice of schools

by jas1984 » Sun Oct 05, 2008 1:56 pm
Hi Lisa,

You have evaluated my profile before ... https://www.beatthegmat.com/evaluation-n ... html#75578

After a lot of thought, I've decided to apply this year. If I get rejected, I can always apply next year. These are my final choices:

1.) Strathclyde - Glasgow
2.) USC Marshall - It's a stretch, but I don't mind trying
3.) ESSEC - France
4.) Georgetown
5.) SDA Bocconi - Italy
6.) International University at Monaco
7.) UC Davis

I would just like to know if these universities are achievable, given my low GPA and lack in extra-curricular activities.

Thank you,
Jas :)

Dear Jas,

It depends on your GMAT. If you score a 680+, then I think many of the schools are possibilities for you assuming you have a strong application package. USC is the biggest stretch for you.

Best of luck to you,
Lisa
