Thanks a bunch. The Boston College deadline to send out letters is February 15th. I'll update once I hear from them. I think that I will receive some scholarship funds from them as well. However, as I already said, it does not matter much, at this point. I plan to move to Chapel Hill on May 9th or ...

Re: Please Help. what should i do?

I agree that you learn more as a full time student and it gives you more time and opportunities to network with potential employers. As to where you should apply to, normally if your goal is to work in public accoun...

Simple answer is that I don't want to do a partime program... I want to be done in 2 years (vs 4). I would love to go to NYU fulltime, but I didnt feel my profile was good enough. Would you agree? Agreed with your 2 vs 4 years preference. I think it'd be a challenge to get into NYU full-time with a...

Asking about acceptance rate

Hi,

Would Admissions Teams frown upon an applicant who asks about acceptance rate? Or other stats such as GMAT or GPA, if they are not published?

670 (47Q 35V) - Just wanted to share

Hopefully my AWA score isn't lower than 4.5. I actually took the test 3 times before, but each was at least a year apart (630, 580, 650). Yesterday I got 670 - 85%. I'm not exhilarated but I'm pleased. I guess I can't complain because my target was 680 (although I didn't realize 680 isn't even 90% n...
