Queen’s MBA Admit with a low GMAT Score



Remember the Shawshank Redemption? Or at least, remember its poster? It said “Fear can hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free.” Philosophical as these lines may be, they certainly hold true in the case of a high potential applicant who almost gave up on his B-school dreams because of a low GMAT score (below even 600), but finally made it to the Queen’s MBA, with the same score!
If a low GMAT score is your concern and is stopping you from applying to top Canadian b-schools, we can assure you that this is not an absolute.

While a good GMAT test score matters, what is more important is to choose the right MBA program and apply with the right attitude..MBA Admission Consultants India

The Harvard 2+2 and the ISB YLP: Not the Only Early Admit MBAs



The HBS 2+2 is one of the few early admit MBAs around the world. Think of top MBA programs which allow applicants to be part of the admissions process right after college, and one thinks primarily of two programs – the Harvard 2+2 and the ISB YLP. Contrary to popular perception, there are other such programs as well. GyanOne presents a brief list of other such programs. This is certainly not exhaustive, but is meant to illuminate potential applicants in the penultimate year of college of possible opportunities..MBA Admission Consultants India

Why an MBA? The True Value of an MBA Education



Not very long ago, an MBA used to be considered a quintessential part of one’s education (especially in India and even the larger South Asian region). A bachelor’s degree was a mere formality – an MBA was the education that really decided what you became, how well you did in life, and even what others thought about you.
At GyanOne, our perspective on MBA programs goes well beyond just admissions. We care about applicants’ motivations for pursuing an MBA, and are committed to bring to them perspectives through our collective experience (100+ man years of professional experience) that could help them make more informed choices..MBA Admission Consultants India

The ISB MBA: an Excellent Option for Reasons Beyond Academics



The ISB MBA is one of the most popular MBA programs among applicants in the Indian and larger Asian region. While a lot has already been said about ISB’s infrastructure, the quality of its faculty, the prestige of the ISB MBA, and its affiliation with other top b-schools, this article seeks to present an insider’s view of some of the other things that make Indian School of Business a great school to attend. The ISB MBA is actually the ISB PGP (Post Graduate Program) in Management, but as most people refer to it as the ISB MBA, that is what we too will do in this post..MBA Admission Consultants India

Top MBA Interview Tips



MBA interviews for admissions are always important affairs – the candidate knows that a strong performance at this juncture will mean a sure admission, while an unconvincing one will mean the end of the road this time round. Here, then, are five critical errors we have seen candidates make over the years, and tips on how to avoid the errors:
Wanting to get an MBA for a higher salary: While it is fine to have a higher salary as one of the aims for pursuing an MBA, don’t make it your overbearing aim.
Your aim should be to take up a different line of work (say, moving from software coding to project management) or a different business function entirely (say, moving from operations to marketing), which might have associated salary benefits too..MBA Admission Consultants India

International MBA vs ISB MBA



Before we dive into all the thoughts that are running in your head about doing an international MBA or an ISB MBA, choose your MBA destination by asking yourself “where do I see my career going?”
The goal is to find the MBA program tailor made for your needs and goals. And we are going to help you decide exactly how you arrive at that conclusion.
The first thing that you would be thinking about is the brand value. Does an Indian MBA holds as much reputation as compared to a top international MBA. Well, it depends on your ultimate intent behind pursuing an MBA and want to work or maybe settle down abroad. Maybe your industry, like consulting or product management does not allow you to grow without an international MBA degree on your resume..International MBA vs ISB MBA

MBA Without Work Experience | A Quick Guide



Can you get into an MBA program without work experience? A one-word answer to the question is yes! However, it is certainly not a straightforward one. There are many factors to be considered here.
An MBA program is built on the premise that you have some real-world experience before you sign up. Nevertheless, if you are choosing to go ahead without the requisite work experience, then you must possess more than just a “regular” profile. So, it may not be the best thing to rely on your academic prowess alone. For instance, you may need to display a deep understanding of corporate affairs. You can accomplish this in several ways. You can provide details of internships or proof of valuable experience which display great conflict resolution skills. On the other hand, you could talk about your experiences that display maturity beyond your age..MBA Without Work Experience

Average GRE Scores for top MBA Programs in Business Schools



Average GRE scores for MBA programs depend on the school and the program you are interested in. Generally, a score of 325+ is considered to be good.
Till about two or three years back, GRE was widely known to be preferred by students opting for an MS degree. However, lately, there has been a steady increase in the number of students applying for MBA programs (with GRE scores).
An important aspect that needs to be considered is that unlike other tests, GRE scores for business schools are considered in sections- Verbal, Quant and Analytical Writing. This means that schools will be looking at your scores individually. Therefore, instead of asking- what is a good GRE score? You should be asking- what is a good Quant/Verbal score?MBA Application tips

ISB Recommendation : Things To Keep In Mind



The ISB recommendation is important because it provides the admissions committee with a third-party opinion of the candidate. A professor or a manager can speak about aspects of your profile which you may not be able to highlight in your application. The recommender can also add perspective on how you will fit into the ISB environment, and why you should be considered for admission. Still, why does ISB ask a third party (your recommender) about you? The answer is simple. They cannot trust you completely. No school can trust an applicant without knowing more about him/her other than what he/she writes in the essays! Personal interaction is necessary, which is why schools give that much importance to their interviews. But, ISB does not interview in most cases..ISB Recommendation
