Hi Vijay,

Thanks for the post, do you know when is the deadline for First round of 2018 Intake? I checked their website but could not find anything related to 2018.

Thanks Vijay

I wrote a review last month. I'm sure it answers most of the questions you've asked.

Would be happy to answer if you have any specific questions after reading this.

Hello, everyone, I'm planning to apply for the class of 2020, however, i'm afraid that my GMAT scores are not stellar. So my question is; what's an acceptable GMAT score in order to get admitted, and what was your overall experience in the admissions process?

Thanks!

Nationality: Indian

Age:29

GMAT:620

Undergrad: BE(Computer Engineering,PICT, University of Pune)
Post Grad: MBA(Marketing, Welingkar, Mumbai)

Work Exp: 3+(Working as an Assistant retail manager with Landmark Group in Dubai, campus placement)

I founded dotcom startup after engg. Worked with it for couple of years as BDO before I wound up. Active participation in theatrical activities during my grad days. I along with some my engg alumni started theater organization which still exists.

Do I hold any chance? I agree with the fact that my GMAT is on lower side. Considering the option of retaking the GMAT.

Hello, there.

You will pretty much have to retake GMAT and preferably score over 700. Your work experience is short compared to your age so I'd recommend coming up with a clear story on why in your essay.

However, since you already have your MBA, I don't know whether other programs will accept you. I'd recommend looking into admission requirements. Normally, MBA programs will not accept you if you already have an MBA from elsewhere.

Good luck.

Straight from the horse's mouth:

Our essays will remain the same this year, which is why they appear under 2016. You can download this file and start preparing their answers.

Hi Vijay, I am planning to apply for McGill, wished to know how important is the knowledge of French language for a. Networking b. Internship/Post MBA jobs. Is it a good a to have or a mandate to land a job in Montreal region, speaking from the perspective of tech-consulting.

Thanks
