Dear Admission Consultants,

I have green card but Indian nationality.

Would I be clubbed together in the international/Indian pool or the local/US pool?

Would it impact how my application is evaluated?

Thanks a lot!

Best,

Admissions is not so much about "clubbing" individuals into applicant pools as it is about finding a qualified yet heterogeneous class. You will be evaluated based upon your profile (GPA, GMAT, work experience, life experience) and your application (essays, LORs, interviews). If you have a great GPA and GMAT score and can differentiate yourself (what unique perspective and/or experience can you bring to the class) then you will be competitive for top programs.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
