Hi Ivan91,
Thank you for your question. We ask for undergraduate extracurricular activities in the application. We take into consideration all XCs as part of the holistic review process, but there isn't a metric for how this can "boost" an application.
As for the TOEFL you must meet all requirements that we list on our website to receive a TOEFL waiver. We are unable to make exceptions. Visit https://ow.ly/84pOn for further information.
Good luck!
Hi GSB Admissions,
As my understanding is working in a big firm is better for an MBA admission than at a smaller company (less than 200 employees).
I work for a small company and intentionally declined the opportunity to work for bigger ones because it would give me more responsibility, ability to interact and understand the management's strategic moves in improving the firm.
If I was working in a big firm the admissions committee knows before hand about more about me as the interviewing or working for a big firm itself sets a standard. My assumption it is harder for the admissions committee to judge the potential a candidate working in a smaller firm and his contribution.
Is my assumption correct, if so how do I working in a smaller firm compensate for it.
I appreciate your time and effort.
Thanks,
Suresh

Hi Matt,
I have a few questions regarding the application. I am really hoping to get some direction from you on the following items:
a) I went to a 4-year public university in the US. However, I took two courses (English I and II) at a community college. These two courses are reflected on my University's official transcript as transferred credits along with the letter grade. Do I need to report this community college as a separate college attended? Also, would you require a transcript from this community college?
b) Financing section - I saw your comment above regarding this section. I do not have any sponsorship or any scholarships in hand. However, I do plan to apply for the scholarship money in the Spring. Should I include what I am "hoping" to receive in scholarships/loans or what I am "expecting" to receive?
c) Internships during college - I have four years of work experience but I have worked in the same job since college. Should I list internships during undergrad as separate work experience? Or is it better not to mention those?
Thanks for being patient with my questions and thanks for helping me out!!
