How to decline an acceptance offer
Hi everyone, I've decided I don't want to attend a program I've been accepted to. Aside from sending in the response form saying I've decided not to attend, is it also a good idea to call the people on the adcom I've been in touch with and let them know? Also, on the response form, there is an optio...

Hey Wilderness, I think you're being paranoid :D . I'm pretty sure business schools will evaluate you based on your application, not based on why you waited to apply to their program, or if you were rejected from somewhere else. In fact, waiting to go to business school because the economy is so bad...

Hey Wilderness, The biggest thing I'm going to do this year to boost my application is some type of volunteer work or extra-curricular activity. I'm satisfied with my GMAT score, there is nothing I can do about my GPA and my career experience is going really well, so doing something outside of work/...

Hi Wilderness, I'm in the same boat. I'm specifically looking for jobs in the investment industry (doing really bad right now), so I've decided to get another year of experience and apply for 2010 when the economy has hopefully started to turn around.

Does that mean you think I am reaching a little too high? Please tell me what you really think, I promise you won't hurt my feeli...

Hi Eric, Thanks for the reply. If we already took the GMAT, will we still be eligible for these scholarships? I noticed that they include money for GMAT prep programs. Obviously, if I've already taken the GMAT and don't plan to take it again, I won't need that part of the scholarship. Hope that does...

Chances at strong finance programs?
Hi, I'm a 27 year old male. GMAT score of 710 (47 Q, 40 V). Education: 3.2 from the University of Wisconsin - Madison, double major in economics/philosohpy. While in school, I "walked on" to the wrestling team. I was cut during tryouts my freshman and sophomore years, and then was accepted...
