A lot of my Clients who had a low GMAT (by Indian standards) are applying to it.

I wonder what stats of last year were.

bb · Answer

I did not know you had a lot of clients

Why is it a draw with lower GMAT applicants? It has no GMAT requirement?
It seems an interesting concept (it definitely carries a premium in terms of tuition). I guess cutting the last semester/2 quarters can work but the traditional MBA recruiting is not setup for this program so I wonder how that will work out. I guess on the other hand, with Tech being a lot more immediate of a recruiting machine vs. banking or consulting that recruit far in advance.

I think in part this makes sense if you have brand names on your resume and can leverage that for recruiting. It would be tougher if you don't.

what do you mean by low gmat (Indian Standard)?

Businessconquerer · Answer

710 may get a US minority in Cornell FT MBA with a full ride but not an Indian (Sad truth)

Thanks to you- I do. I closed the service starting august this year. Only the clients who have not accepted their offers are taking help- informally.

They came to me with the MBAi and needed an opinion. So, the points you raised are the ones I told them in concern but I also know how dumb the recruiters are so told them that it is a brand that will help not the degree. Although it seems particularly defined for people looking at Strategy roles in Tech based industries.

And a lot by my standards- I like admissions consulting- closed 80 clients solo. I think I can start it again some day.

Can I do some series on this process for GMAT club on youtube, I can keep my sass to an acceptable range- although if you tell me to go all in, I can be brave hahahaha?

bb  tap on the link you'll see the amazing success we had. You had faith to let me start something, now it is all good.

Businessconquerer · Answer

I forgot to answer the two questions you asked. 
The lower GMAT applicants have an opportunity to leverage the lower competition pool to get into a school that they wanted to join only for the name in the first place- I get a lot of those- no other reason than BRAND. Network comes in handy as well. There may be no requirement for a test score but then again- in most cases who have been given an admit without the GMAT were not the brightest scorers to start with in the first place.

I would expect no less with the USC Marshall rank spike- I would call it a great move and a demonstrated proof of the metrics set for School rankings.

Coming back to the question though, the lower GMAT of 700 can still get a person who wanted to go into product management role- an opportunity and a brand power that they would have been otherwise not been given- just cuz... pool!

I really should start a series calles- "We don't pee in your bed so don't pee in our pool"

Yes, I applied in round 2. Interviewed with adcom. Even I felt the same, the interview kinda went too fast (around 30 mins including my questions). When is Kellogg releasing the decisions?
