Hi all - I was accepted into both Ross and Darden and would love to hear your expert thoughts on which to attend. Post-MBA goal is to go into CPG marketing. Ross has an edge in placement in this area, but Darden's case method may better prepare me down the road. Most other factors are a toss up: gr...

realistic picture of financial aid/tution waiver in top MBA
Can somebody post his/her experience about the realistic picture of financial aid during top MBA programs? Is there really some aid available? People are working their aXX off to pull score 760-770 but you can get admission only at 720 or 730 so do these top profilers get full tution waiver or it is...

Age related rumors and dilemma during MBA admission at HBS
I've heared from some people that no matter how good your score and MBA admission profile is, HBS prefers people around 23-25 and if you happen to be around 29 then it will make you little secondry in comparison to a candidate with same profile but younger age? Is this true??

Great job Havok :) Excellent score and an inspiring debrief! Good luck for the next step :) The best mindset is to get the "stay focused". Also, this thought that you need to MASTER THE MINDSET is also a weakness. Feel that you will make it. Feel like a winner and you will!! Don't think t...

No 200 could be realistic because if you don't know how to approach data sufficiency amd you don't know how the approach verbal portion then it is quite realistic to score 200-210. It seems from ditch to top. 200----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

I took my GMAT but my verbal screwed up and landed up with 600 score. In my practice GMATPREP tests my average score is 650 with highest 690. The reason I figured out is the toughness of question in real exam in comparison to OG10, OG12. Please suggest. Breakage is Q 50, V 20:::::::: 600 It is happ...
