Hi,

There is a tab in the application that asks for the number of times I have taken my GMAT.

I have taken GMAT 3 times. I cancelled the 3rd time since my score was equal to that of what I scored in my 2nd attempt. So it doesn`t reflect in my score card.

Do I need to mention the number of times as 2 or 3?

Regards
Balaji


You can give 2 and attach the applicant score card for the 2nd test that show only two attempts.

Did the same


Thank you so much. One more question. NTU doesn`t ask for your 10th class or 12th class scores?

I was not able to find a place where I can fill this.

No foreign University(NUS/Insead/NTU) asks that! It's only the Indian Univ that are interested in 10th , 12th scores.
But if your score is v.good , you can include that in "other achievements" column.

Are people still getting admits ? I had my interview on 28th Nov at Mumbai. I believe some have got offers. I haven't received any mail yet. Should I consider it a ding ?

My university degree does not have a class of honours mentioned. I have tried asking the admission team but they have not given any firm reply. Can anybody help me on this?

Why dont you ask your university and find out whether they award a class. If they do then usually it is mentioned in the degree scroll.
Its not mandatory in the application though . However, If you know your rank/percentile then you can mention it in other achievements.

Re: Calling all NTU Nanyang MBA Applicants: (2017 Intake) Class of 2018!! [#permalink]
Hello,

Congrats to folks who got admitted !

Could you please help me with second essay.

Tell us about two achievements (one as a leader and one as a team member) that you are most proud of, and why you feel that to be so. (400 word limit)

I am finding it difficult to bifurcate the achievements. Can I write achievements like this ?

As a leader -

XXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXX

As a team member -
YYYYYYYYYYY
YYYYYYYYYY

Or, I should not explicitly write As a leader ; as a team member in the headings.

Any insight will be highly appreciable !

Thanks

My university does not has a class system. And moreover its mandatory in the application. The application system is not letting me go to the next section without filling the class of honors.

Do you have something like a "Distinction". My univ doesnt have a class system either. But anyone who had 8 and above GPA with a paper publication received distinction, which is equivalent to 1st class honors in UK system and cum laude (top 10%) in latin/US. (I had distinction mentioned in the degree scroll)

You have to just put an equivalent class. if you know your percentile or rank (even roughly). But if I remember right, you can choose "none" and go ahead with the application. Personally, I feel it's better to choose that than put something that you dont have a proof of.

Either way. All the best!

Both should be fine.
I did neither. I specified within the body of each paragraph itself as to how the situation helped me as a member/leader in order to conserve words.

Hi,

I am finding a bit difficult to articulate things pertaining to essay 5 - why do you deserve a scholarship?

Can anyone shed some light on the same about what is expected in this essay?

Best Regards
