Hi, For the top schools like Wharton/Stanford/UC-Berkeley, the GPA is all important as well. Further, as UC-Berkeley is a part of the UC System, they tend to be a little lenient with GPAs as compared to others (of course not at the cost of your potential for excellence. GPA range is still very high....

Hi, Please find below a brief analysis. 1. Your percentage in undergraduate studies is good. Above 60% is first class in India and this is good enough for them. Above 70% makes it a distinction which obviously helps more. But still, above 60% and you are good to go. 2. Ideally target 700 to be on th...

Hi, 94 percent in engineering is truly bewildering. Please don't get us wrong here, but the US colleges are well aware of the percentages students get in courses such as engineering. Even IIT Toppers don't really exceed 8.9 on their GPA scales (there might just be 9 pointers but we havent met any) a...

Hi, You got a 94 percent in your bachelors degree? That is unbelievable. If you studied in India, we don't even think that's possible. Anywhere actually, because the GPA is a relative allocation. Kudos however. Also, you cannot convert your GPA on your own. In fact even the universities would not co...

More than 99% of the test takers we are in contact with get an average of their GMAT Prep Scores (our sample size isn't too large before you view this with skepticism, but still good enough). Hence, we feel you can do much be...

Hi, Your overall GMAT is good, so we don't think the Quant should play too much of a spoilsport. Yes, these schools would have liked to see you past the 90 percentile mark, especially since your major was Accounting and Finance. Also, the fact that you have taken the GMAT twice (both scores will be ...
