Yes, it does. Keep in contact with the alumni/current students, visit the campus if possible and speak with the faculty and students, show your enthusiasm, and sometimes they can help put in a good word. Networking is a very underrated part of the MBA admissions process.

They have specifically asked not to contact them in the letter as there’s not much that can be done now !

Does anyone know the start day of the program? I heard it will commence from 08/04/2024. Can we find the official start day somewhere on the website?
Accordingly paper work is to be done with the current employer.

Thanks

There’s a difference between pestering adcoms by calling and mailing again and again versus genuinely taking advantage of opportunities that can help to put forth a good impression. Most applicants are good at disregarding advice that can help them move forward. This then becomes an advantage for someone else who may actually choose to engage with the school meaningfully. Even if someone may not benefit from networking immediately in R3, it can certainly help at a later stage or maybe during subsequent intakes. Speaking from experience in R1 & R2, applicants who were more proactive cleared waitlists and got through despite very low GRE/GMAT scores.

Hello,
First to answer your concern -  " I have a career gap of 5 months as my parents were unwell and I had to leave my job to look after them both. Wanted to understand how this will impact my profile. " 

Technically, this has no direct impact on your profile. It happens and it is important to take care of your family. There are many aspects allied to this however, like - Are you still on a break? Are you rejoining work? How have you utilised your time? If you have a reasonable discussion around these aspects, it's fine. 

For the rest your grades are good, GRE score is also good ( the average at PGPX has been 323). With 4.5 years of experience in digital and mainline marketing at prestigious firms like Ogilvy and FCB, your professional profile is robust. Your experience as an Account Manager, leading campaigns, and managing a team aligns well too.

The career gap is not a deterrent if well explained. Hope this helps.

All the best!
