I am applying to Fuqua Early Action next Wednesday 7 Sept.

I noticed that Fuqua requires that all admitted students complete "some modules of" MBA math.

Do you think that I should try to quickly complete this course this weekend to improve my candidacy? Also, any one here applying using the Executive Assessment test?

Hi Prudhviraju! Afaik the deadline is 15th Sept however it is usually encouraged to ask your recommenders to submit them before the deadline because the application is considered incomplete until the recommendation is submitted.

Is it necessary to write about our roles and responsibilities at our organisation in the professsional experience section if all of it is mentioned in the Resume?

Yes. You have to provide an additional job description apart from what you provide on your resume

Hey Evan! Just the kind of questions that were asked. Were they similar to the debriefs that are available here on gmatclub or did something new pop off? what what your buddy’s experience like? stuff like that.

mainbhiankit, He used the forum. Two questions that stumped him were "How do you define diversity?" and "what criteria are using to select a school if you are accepted to multiple?". Beyond this, everything, according to him, was straightforward

I had my interview on Early Action (during open period interview) last Friday (9 Sept) with Alumni.

Overall it was a great interview! He asked me basic MBA questions (tell me about yourself, why MBA, ST/LT) and some behavioural questions like how is your leadership style and challenges across team.

I applied using my EA score. My score is pretty low but hopefully some magic happens because I apply during early action and underrepresented. I hope...

Congratulations on completing your interview! Great information! Any idea what is a good EA score for Fuqua?

As per my discussion with admission few months ago (and in some waitlist video for Duke that I found in gmatclub), they are looking for >150 to show academic readiness, and >155 to be consider as competitive.

I am not sure if our score is <150, are we then got automatic cut-off because of not showing "academic readiness" or what? Would love hear from anyone to share their view on this.

I too have heard that any score below 150 is unacceptable. I think that 155 is OK but with Fuqua’s acceptance rate hovering around 20% I am worried that this may not be sufficient. I have a 155 but only 12 in quant so I am worried.

But then again Fuqua is known to accept candidates with low test scores if the adcom likes your profile. Only way to find out is to apply!

I did. It was tough to decide whether to do so but I ultimately decided to state the peer schools to which I’m also applying.

Was just looking through my application proof and noticed that the job description that I wrote in the employment section does not appear on my application proof. Anyone else notice this?
