Harvard 2+2 Program

by mriiidula » Fri Jul 08, 2011 2:11 am
Hello Everyone,

I'm planning to apply to the Harvard 2+2 program starting in 2012 (Class of 2016). I will be taking the GMAT in October, so just started my prep for that. I'm hoping to get above 700. I plan to apply in Round 2 (deadline 10th Jan 2012). I study in a British university and hence we don't have a GPA system. I have plenty of extra curricular experience throughout my years in high school and university.

What are my chances of getting accepted? I'm studying BEng Electronic and Computer Engineering.

Hi Mriiidula,

Your technical major/s will put you at an advantage given the composition of 2+2 class, and strong extracurriculars with leadership roles will also help greatly.

The information you have shared though is not sufficient for anybody to give you an educated response. Of course you may not feel comfortable broadcasting more so please email me at [email protected] if you would like a closer look.

But more critical info would be school attended, a practice GMAT score once you have studied some, your class ranking, internships you have held...

No red flags as of yet.

Thank you Alex.

I've sent you an email with as much information as possible. I can't give you a GMAT score yet though, so perhaps you could give me some information regarding what kind of score would get me in? Then I can work towards that.
