Hi avinsethi, himanshukamra2711 and dsaha203
My Gmat score is 630 and I have 1-year experience, what are my chances?
Also as mentioned my targetbusiness, I can't see the requirement of Essays from Degroote, all they ask for admissions is Resume, LORs, Transcripts but not essays.
Last thing, I see you guys are from India, by any chance, anyone is from Delhi and if yes have you consulted any consultants
Please Reply

Thanx in advance

Hi kartikay19,

The minimum required as per the website is 580 and the Co-op program is meant for candidates with little industry experience. Going by that, I think you have a fair chance. They have a few questions in the application (equivalent to your normal essays or SOP).

I am not from Delhi, and no I haven't been approached by any consultants , nor I seeked any help from them.

Regards,
Deb

kartikay19

I am having 3.5 years of experience in Technology Consulting.
The interview comprises of two parts, one is an online recorded one (KIRA), and another is on Skype (one to one).

The questions are basically situational / behavioral in nature. Just google for those, and you will get plenty online. Also you might be asked 'Why you want to do an MBA?'.

Regards,
Debajyoti

kartikay19,

I am glad I could help. You can apply before giving your exam, and update the application once you have the test results available. I did the same with my TOEFL.

I didn't get your question about the video interview. It comprises of a few questions , which you need to record an submit. You only get one chance, but you can take as many practice questions as required on the portal. But once you start the interview , you have to finish it at one shot.

Regards,
Deb

Hi. Congratulations.
There isn’t one as of now. But DeGroote will be creating a closed group for admitted candidates soon.
Meanwhile, if you want we could create a https://gmatclub.com/chat group.
