Hi,

Are you looking at schools in the United States or elsewhere?

Re: #3, the GPA conversion sounds much too low. Do you know your class rank?

Hi Hjort,

Thanks for your prompt reply.

I am looking for B-schools in USA only.

Checked with few Indian students who got admission for Sep 2004 fall regarding % to GPA conversion. American B-schools are comfortable with the percentage of Indian degress and a 3/4 scale GPA conversion is not done.

We dont have Rank mentioned in any of the Transcripts or Marksheets.

IMHO: I think i stand some where between 40-45 out of a class strength of 80.

Thanks

Hi,

I agree that there is little point in "converting" grades to the 4.0 scale.

Have you considered Arizona State or Case Western?

Hi,

I haven't considered the schools mentioned by you.

I have the list of Rankings of USNews and BWeek and found it difficult to sort the schools where i can be a fit.

Amont the Top-25 Schools , do i stand i a chance. If so which school

1.Any remote chance at Darden? ( Can i take a shot ? )

Among: UC berkeley haas, Kenan-flager, Texas Austin, ohio-fisher, Notre Dame , Michigan State Broad, Maryland Smith which B-schools are good for GM and where i can realistically aim for.

Good Canadian Schools matching my criteria are also welcome.

Thanks

I would look at some of the transelites such as UNC and Texas. Take a look at Western Ontario as well.
