Help!! Upcoming Interview at Darden
Maybe its anxiety. Maybe its fear. Or maybe its just not wanting to look back years from now and think "Dam I should've done ____ and ____ then I would've been admitted". I, fortunately, have an interview coming up for the full time MBA program at University of Virginia's Darden School of ...

Well guys, I just had my interview at USC earlier this morning. It was with an Associate Director of Admissions. I felt really good about it, when we started she told me it'd only be 30 min, and she had only seen my resume. We went on for 50 min! Talked about my resume, undergraduate background, pas...

Hi Everyone, I have a dilemma. Like it says in the subject line I'm heading into an interview, I was invited by the Marshall School at USC!

Double spacing on school essays??
Hi, Ok so this might sound like a dumb question, but do ALL business school essays need to be double spaced? I'm asking because I've seen Stanford specifically ask for 12 point, Arial/Times New Roman, double spaced, etc. while Kellogg just asks for a 1 inch margin at the top and doesn't say anything...

Is there a link where b-school essays from the past 3-4 years are stored on this site? I guess I can at least map out how each of my experiences can "fit" into a certain question/criteria the schools would be looking for.

Hey everyone, I just noticed a bunch of posts on this thread after I got a PM, I thought this had faded away in forum memory! Anyways on to some responses: @Ronny777 - The reason I explained how I felt about the argument prompt I got is most likely because of the non GMAT Prep CATS I took and becaus...

I got a PM requesting more detail on my prep and exam experience, so I'm sharing it so all can benefit: A little bit about myself can kind of shed some background on why I didn't stretch out my GMAT studying for 2+ months. I graduated with B.S. in Biomedical Engineering and a Minor in Materials Sci...

570 --> 710 in 46 days
Hello, I've been browsing through this forum for advice and insights on the GMAT for less than 3 weeks and with only 1 post, I don't think I've really established myself as part of the 'community'. But I feel like I had kind of a weird run around with practice test scores before I took the real exam...

Yes all those CATS were from PR. I'm worried cause these kinds of results are coming just before the exam, and after I've been reviewing for a while. Its not like I don't know the material, most of the questions I misssed on verbal are mistakes I can learn from and avoid from happening again. For so...

6 days to the real test and practice scores took a huge hit
Hi, This is my first post. I've been studying for the GMAT since April 4, 2011. I'm just about to finish a princeton review course and I've been using the 12th edition of the official guide. I was consistently scoring higher on each successive exam, except well now: Test 1: 570 (35Q, 34V, taken with...
