Hi all,

I am finishing essay for R2. The first question about career goal is:

"We know that you have a lot to tell us but to keep it fair, your answers are limited to 150 words.
What is your professional goal immediately following graduation from Tepper?
What other role would you consider? In other words, what is your Plan B?"

This means that I have 150 words for each question above -> total 300 words or I have 150 words for both plan A & B?

Hope some of you guys let me know

I don't remember if there was anything mentioned during the Application webinars, but I played it safe and went for 150 words in total for Plan A + B.

I did 150 words for each question (300 words total). Based on their wording I think that makes much more sense than 150 words total to answer both questions.

I just got an interview invite from Tepper too. But the deadline was just yesterday? How did they review the application and invite to interview so quickly? Does Tepper not ding people before interviews?

P.S. I was convinced I will get dinged without an interview due to my very low undergrad GPA and GMAT.

I submitted my R2 application on November 16 so maybe thats why I received an interview invite so early? When did you submit yours?

Same thing happened for R1. I assume their system automatically invites a certain percentage based on raw stats.

I received an Email the admission team asking me to upload the missing documents.

Upon reviewing I found that they need university official university grading scale sheet.

I am from India graduated from JNTU Kakinada and we donot have any grading scale sheet as such. Can you someone please help me ?

Good luck to all R2 applicants!

For those invited for an interview, you can check out the Interview Debriefs tab for your review. One tip I can give is that your answers should follow the STAR method . Best to have a couple of scenarios at hand that you can apply to various types of questions.
