Thanks 'ivyvictor2010'. Should I explain it even though the marksheet/transcript does not say "fail" anywhere. Technically, I don't have a failing grade (as the question asks)? although I did fail the written exam (which I re-took) The question specifically says "received a failing gr...

For more clarity, what does KT mean here? So, a KT is different from failing an entire class and repeating the whole class again. According to the KT(Keep Term) system, if the candidate fails the final written-exam in a semester, the candidate can appear for the exam again in the following semester...

Mumbai University -Pass Class in the first year of undergrad
Hi,
I graduated from Mumbai University with a "First Class".
However, I had a KT in the first semester and consequently a "Pass Class" in my first year.
Should I explain the KT/ Pass Class?
Thanks!

Hi, One of the schools I’m applying to (Anderson FEMBA) has the following question : “Why UCLA Anderson FEMBA for these next three years? Do you plan to enhance your current career or shift into a new career? If your interests are entrepreneurial, are you already an entrepreneur or do you plan t...

Thanks Jon! My only concern is that even if I try to qualify the grades like you mentioned and say something like 65% is the "top 10%", I don't have any official record because my university does not provide such statistics. Do you think I should still go ahead and mention that? If asked t...

Hi Mili,
Thanks for your reply! I've heard that most of the electives @ USC are offered during weekdays. I'm planning on commuting from SF on weekends. So Marshall may not work out.
Does MBA Admission have resume+essays service?
thanks!

Thanks for your reply Jon. After reading several responses, I'm convinced that flying to LA every weekend for Anderson (if I get in) would be a wise thing. In your experience, have you come across many applicants/students who fly to Kellogg/Chicago every weekend from the West Coast for part-time MBA...

Thanks for the info Brian! I should have been more specific. I wanted to ask how many people at Booth/Kellogg fly in from the other (West) coast? How long is your commute? Is that something they don't encourage. I've heard that the projects require meeting your peers during the week. So, that may no...

Thanks Brian!
I wasn't aware of USC's weekday classes.
I see that you've been accepted by Booth. Congrats!
Based on your research what are the weekend out of town stats for Booth and Kellogg?
When (what round) did you apply?
thanks,
