Are you applying as American or Indian? Are you in the US? Any leadership?

(Anyhow with a 740 and as a female candidate I would go for it, but chances could be better or worse)

Thanks for your reply!

I am in US since 6.5 years - I did my masters degree from Cornell and have worked in the US since 5.5 years - but I am an Indian by citizenship.

I do not have significant leadership skills I can demonstrate. What kind of leadership skills do people usually demonstrate? Should it be work-related only or leadership skills for extra curricular activities are ok too? I have founded a photography club at work and also I was the head of placements commitee during my undergrad. Do they count?

Thanks

I'd personally be rather surprised if you were turned down from the Haas EWMBA program with female minority status and an excellent GMAT. The EWMBA shouldn't be as strict about things like previous GPA, etc. Just my feeling though - not an expert opinion.

Anyhow, I hope to apply to the same next year. See you there!

"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."
