New to the forum. Good luck to all

Could someone let me know HBS requires an official report of the GMAT score in addition to the unofficial reporting done in the online app?

Thanks!

They do.

in for R2.

I reported my official score to HBS when took the GMAT test (with the 5 free schools) little more than 2 years ago. Do I need to officially report the same score again, now that I submitted for R2 today?

I am not sure how long HBS will keep GMAT scores (of applicants/future applicants), so its better to verify with them if they have your official score. I am not sure whether its easy for them to verify it right now. When does HBS actually ask students for the official?

From my understanding (albeit this was at gmatch's virtual fair). The scores that you submit remain accessible throughout the period that they are valid.

I submitted my app on 11th and I just figured that in my self-reported transcript form, I made a typo in the information of one course. What should I do? Possible implications?

If the typo is the grade or number of units, then I might be concerned. If it's the name of the class or course identifier code, then not as much.

I think the spreadsheet is open for anyone to edit at this point. You guys are welcome to correct your entries.

If you get an interview, I will bring the mistake to light...It is not worth riding it out to see if they spot the mistake. If you get accepted and they find out that you left out a course, they may rescind the offer.

arrrggghhhh... I don't know why I bothered to look through my application again AFTER I submitted... somehow I left out a "the" in one of my essays...

It's at the end of a line so it's maybe less noticeable. Hopefully this doesn't mean auto-ding! lol

For my wharton app, I made a mistake in my self-reported transcript while filling it at the last minute. I missed a complete course in self-reported transcript because in my transcript it was right below another course that had the same grade (and the garde was not good). All other things, such as GPAs came out fine. I am concerned about my mistake[/quote]

smileyface, are you saying that I should let them know about it during the interview (if invited); can i let them know about it now.
The reason I had to fill the self-reported transcript at the last minute was only because my UG pdfs were larger than 500KB and unlike other schools wharton online app allows you to upload only 1 pdf for UG. I had divided my transcript to into 3 parts so I could upload each part for other schools, but wharton's was different.

I think they should be able to understand that it was an inadvertent mistake due to same course grade adjacent to where mistake happened.

I am concerned that any attempt to bring it to light is going to complicate it. My GPAs and everything else is reported correctly everywhere
