Ok so MIT Sloan gets the award of the slowest thread this year! What is happening? Who are you all? I applied last year and interviewed. Had a great experience and converted a waitlist in July :)

Ended up going to Michigan, but happy to answer questions! Come on over here!

I have a question regarding TOEFL requirement. I did my undergrad from IIT Madras. Do I really need to write TOEFL prior to applying?

As per the information given in US News rankings, TOEFL is not required, but, check with the school once again.

TOEFL is not required for Sloan, as clearly mentioned on their website.

Hi all,

Myself Nitesh, Following is my profile -

GMAT- 730(Q49, V40)
GPA- 7.77/10 (MECH. ENGG.)
U.G. College - BIT Mesra
Work Exp- 3.5 years(Not a big name employer, but the quality of work ex is good)
Nationality - Indian
Gender- Male
EC- not exceptional, but overall fine

I am planning on applying for the LGO program through MIT Sloan. I am a little worried since my GMAT seems to be 20 points less. What do you think should I go ahead and apply for the course or is it too much of a stretch.

Thanks in advance

Can anyone tell me whether we need to submit an official GMAC score report ahead of Oct 1? It doesn’t seem to say explicitly anywhere in the application.

Are we fine self-reporting for now?

Hi 770Q48V51,

MIT Sloan requires that applicants submit a self-reported and an official test score by the deadline. So please do request your scores be sent to MIT Sloan ASAP.

Good luck!

Susan

Curious how others are tackling the employment information. I've been at the same employer (large consulting firm) for 5 years and unsure if I should create separate entries for each promotion or only have one for the entire time?

Thanks so much for the heads up! I feel like an idiot not having realized that. Fortunately, their FAQs said it’s okay if they receive the scores shortly after the deadline.

If it helps, we recently published a video on this topic - Getting a Strong MBA Recommendation Letter.
Here is another video on MBA recommendations for entrepreneurs or those coming from family businesses - Best Recommenders if You are an Entrepreneur OR working in family business

I also submitted on Tuesday, now it is on to crossing fingers and hoping for the best. Especially the video was something that caused me quite a bit of headache :)

Does anyone know what percentage of additional references roughly get called?

Best regards,
Chris

Wonder if the one person in the tracker with an interview invite accidentally hit the button or if they actually got one.

Based on what I read in the emails, I think the one invite might be a miss click.

They did not contact any of mine yet (hope this is not a bad sign).

Cheers,
