Waitlisted.

Really thought this was my best! [in terms of essays, fit and interview]. Tough :(

If only there was a way to know what could have led to the waitlist.

for the people waitlisted, what’s the next thing to do
In all honesty , let this go. No amount of work sitting in events or anything (MBA math)will concretely help. Do the video , in 15 days write an email still showing your interest and that’s pretty much it . I know its super hard to cut losses . But instead on hanging on to this apply to schools in R2 or focus on other interviews if you have them lined up .

a fellow waitlisted candidate !!!

Hi Guys,
Please is it true that Booth usually rejects candidates above 30 and recommend them for the Executive program instead?

Hi, I can not represent everyone above 30, but as an applicant at 34, I was rejected by Booth Full-time MBA program and then got invited by Booth EMBA Asia Campus. So I would contribute to a yes here.

Hello everyone,

Congratulations to those who have received an admit. For those who haven’t received one yet, I hope you receive positive news from other schools you have applied to.

As part of GMAT Club’s continuous efforts to improve the forum experience, we’re introducing a revamped version of our "What Are My Chances" tool. To accomplish this, we need the help of you awesome folks! If you applied in R1 this year, it would immensely benefit us if you could fill out the following survey. The survey will not take more than two minutes but will significantly contribute to our research efforts, allowing us to provide more accurate evaluations to our future candidates.

Best of luck!

Do we (WL folks) need to upload the video before other R1 results come out to show that Booth is the “True Love”?

To all admitted R1 applicants,
I am applying in R2 and in the process of writing my essays, I see that Booth has no upper limit for each essay. Do you mind sharing how many words I should write for each essay? And what is the best way to approach each essay?

Appreciate all the helps!
