I think that when they call waitlisted candidates, you would be the first one to be called if you have a higher gmat.

I have a 660 gmat. 6 years management consulting experience. So definitely this school is extremely GMAT conscious then.

Yeah I sent them a couple of questions let's see what they say. Gonna have to start dusting off the old books again i guess. I think now most schools are getting focused on the GMAT, hence the waitlists after good interviews.

did you get a mail or was it a portal update?

This is what i got from them:

The University of Notre Dame MBA Admissions Committee has carefully reviewed your application. We are unable to offer you admission today, but we would like you to consider remaining on our wait list.

The Admissions Committee would like you to consider retaking the GMAT or GRE in order to strengthen your application. If you plan on retaking a test, please let our team know the date so that we can make a notation within your application.

Wait-listed applications are reviewed periodically throughout the application cycle and we will notify you immediately of your status changes.

Sincerely,

Kristin McAndrew

I sent them a couple of questions too. Let's see what response we get. You at least have some feedback on where to improve. I have none at the moment.

I do agree that without retaking it might be difficult for you to get through.
Do you have any other admits?

Yeah, but that feedback will kill me :P Il have to prepare and write in a couple of weeks or so ! Lets see.
Nope i dont have any other admits WL in Olin and Mendoza. No responses from Simon yet so i'm guessing its a ding.

well give it all you've got unless you want to pace out yourself and try next year in case nothing works out for yo, but be positive. Let's hope it all works out in the end

I am in a similar boat.. converting ND is crucial for me
