Guys, I am preparing for GMAT and want to apply for Round 2. How difficult is it to manage both and are there successful candidates who have done the same.

Also is AI usage acceptable in application essays or it needs to be 100% self written.
Need advice
From what I have heard from various admission events this year, usage of AI is acceptable as long as the stories is the essays are authentic to you. Also, there is no guaranteed way of checking if something was written by AI. The only check they can do with certainty is plagiarism check, so make sure you write your own stories.

For GMAT, 2-3 months is usually sufficient, so try to give your GMAT by or before first week of Dec, leaving around a month at least for your round 2 applications.

Hi, I have submitted my application, but my letter of recommendation was not submitted before the deadline. Is there still a chance for my application to be considered for Round 1?
I’m sure if you politely request the adcom, they will accept it (assuming it’s submitted by now). Ask them asap though before it’s too late.

Nope haven’t received - is it mentioned if it’s an interview or just a chat?

Chat option came to me much before the deadline and it was normal informational one.

I have been intentionally trying to forget that the fact that MIT will release its interviews next week!

What’s this chat/ call? Are they the chosen ones ?
