Calling all McDonough MBA Applicants: [2020 Intake] Class of 2022!

Hi, is there still hope for being on the waitlist without an interview?
My GMAT score is not in the middle 80th percentile but my GPA is around the average GPA. I have extensive international experience, around 10 years. The 2 total GMAT scores which were sent to them were basically the same (V37 Q35 and V28 Q43 respectively). Should I try GRE this time instead? 1 month might be too short for me to prepare for GRE.
I'm leaning more towards improving GMAT but at the same time don't want to spend more money on the GMAT because I've taken it more than 3 times within 3 months.
I'm also taking the CS50 course as mentioned in the optional essay.
Could someone please help me?

The only advice I can give you is that based on your verbal scores, you'll probably struggle with the GRE.

Hi everyone. What is the average scholarship % for those who got in? Is it my idea or Georgetown did not really give much scholarship out? Does anyone know if this is normal from this school? Any input is appreciated

It's weird because in their webinars they would say that usually 50% of admitted students receive some scholarship award, even if it is minimal. But I have only seen 2 people on ClearAdmit's Livewire say they received something.

Interesting despite the fact they are on the higher end ticket price for being on the top 20. I was expecting a scholarship as well.

is there a https://gmatclub.com/chat group for admitted students yet? if so, please link

Hello everyone,
I am preparing for my interview these past days and I was wondering if anyone would have any general specific tips for Georgetown interview process?
Thank you in advance!

Congrats on the interview! When did you apply? I'm slightly concerned because I had an informational interview from a student referral the wk before last and I believe they said I would hear from them next (in this case last) wk about an interview. Hope that doesn't mean ding.

I submitted before deadline, but they needed additional info so it was 'completed' on 3/26 or so.

Thank you!!!
