Sure, hope it will help some people

I applied in R3 with Gmat 710, then got into wl.
- After improving my Gmat score to 730, I wanted to craft a really compelling update essay. Thus, I contacted some alumni and asked them to help me figure out the reasons I was on the waitlist.
- An alum reasonably convinced me that I was waitlisted because the school couldn’t see my commitment.
- My action plan was to contact more alumni and current students, ask them to let me put their names in my email, and also try to meet people from different countries and backgrounds.
- In the email, I also mentioned reason I applied in R3 is bc my gmat in R2 was just 670, and I was not confident to apply to Cornell with 670
- Besides, I had an offer from T30 school with 80% scholarship, but I am 100% committed to Cornell

So, I got the interview invitation two hours later
The interview went well
I got the offer few days later
I think my tip is to never lose faith even getting waitlist without interview

I dont think GMAT is the only selection criteria. Its just one of the components. 730 would be sufficient

We get a lot of people using exception cases as a measure for evaluation. As I tell my clients, if you’re from the overrepresented pool, it’s beneficial to be above the class average in every stat except work ex where they benefit from being in the average.

I can see why people would want to ensure that figure given school’s history and knowing that most people admitted carry that score from over represented pool.

Definitely doesn’t mean it’s the only score. 730-760 should be a good range to play the field, I’d say.


I actually started MBA Conquerors coz of the issues with overrepresented pool only and I’ve observed so many people know the fact but still apply and be disappointed later. Keep pushing for a good score and stay above school’s average by at least 20-30 points. And yeah for M7, trend does support the 760 theory! Hoping this helps.

P.S. one year MBA degree at Cornell is still an MBA degree if you have a lower score but still like Cornell. The work ex requirements and certifications may vary. But that’s another option
