MIT is pretty serious about stats and you really can only have 1 or maybe 2 of the 3 key stats - GMAT/GPA/YOE - be significantly below average and for you all 3 are. Unless your stories are very compelling, you will have to get your GMAT up.

How was your past academic performance? If it was very outstanding, yes you might want to get a waiver but from my understanding, you must have a very good reason for such a request which absolutely must not be I didn’t do that well on the test.

It’s not that outstanding so yeah probably should just submit the score I had, thanks though

Hey everybody, I just submitted my Round 2 application to MIT Sloan for full time MBA program

Background: 9+ years working, ex NY banker turned startup tech person wanting to pursue change transformation leadership. Tech is really just NOT my field as I'm not technically savvy AT ALL. Very much a soft skills, emotions, feelings, kind of person which gets run over in finance in the early years, but starts to matter more and more at the top.
GPA 3.28 from Ivy league school
Not the best GRE (161 V/165 Q /5.0 W) but I tried my best in a short turn around time (1 Month studying)

Hoping MIT will appreciate that I'm a little bit of a quirky candidate! Best of luck to all else who apply and hope to connect if we cross paths.

In the application, there is a link embedded in "here" in a sentence mentioning about the fee in top sections. I forgot exactly where it is, but the word "here" is in red and underlined
