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

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.

Thanks for the help !

Admitted. Received a mail yesterday.

Are there any social media groups for admitted students? Would love to interact with my future batchmates

Congrats, i got through too

Even i would like to know if there are any mediums to interact with my future classmates?

Hi Surmeet, Others,

Is NTU still rolling out admits for R1? Because I am yet to receive any email from them.
When did you guys give the interview?

Did you contact the Adcom team post your application?

Hi Guys,
Congratulations to all those who are admitted.
I have a 660 GMAT and am a Indian IT Male with 10 years of experience.
Is it worth applying to the program ?
Does the school do pre-application profile evaluation ?

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
Balaji

Hi Balaji!

You will have to answer with repsect to each scholorship you are eligible for. For example, if you are eligible for "Emerging Market leader scholorship" then highlight how your market is niche and how it is going to be the next big thing. Also, try to stress on how proud you are in being associated with such an industry and what position you see yourself holding in a couple of years if you intend to return to the same industry.

This is just an example. You can work in line with this strategy for other scholorships as per your eligibility. The list of scholorships and eligibility criteria is available in their website!!

All the very best !

I am not too sure if they are still rolling out admits, i got mine in 19th December. My interviews were conducted on 3rd and 8th December.

I was in touch with the adcom after i gave my interviews.

Let me know if this helps.

Hi All

I submitted my application on 20th December and got a link from the admissions team to upload the supporting documents if I have not done so yet.

Even though I did upload all the documents during submission, I noticed today on the link that my resume was not the updated one. There was a remove option there, so I removed my resume and uploaded the correct one. Hope that there is no issue with that . I think there was a remove option so I feel that we can make changes before deadline.

Hi Karant,

Please find the citation from NTU on this and I quote:

"GMAT or GRE score report
You may upload your unofficial or test taker copy if you do not have your official test scores on hand. Please arrange to have your official test scores sent to Nanyang Business School. Our GMAT institution code is V24-ZV-13 and our GRE DI code is 3802."

Hope this helps.

Hi Balajikarthick1990,

Thanks for the prompt response.

If we have official report in hand, then we don't need to send the official score through MBA.com. We may upload the official score.

Am I right ?

Hi, Sending the official score is a mandate. Before your GMAT exam had started, you would have chosen 5 schools to send your scores?

Did you include nanyang business school (Full time MBA) in that?

If yes, then the scores would have reached them and you just need to upload your copy. You would find the schools list (what you have chosen) in the official score card.

If No, then you have to go to MBA.com and pay some dollars and send your official score to NTU (based on the code provided by them).

Hope you got the point.

Cheers
Balaji

I submitted my application yesterday. I have noticed after submission that I misspelt my NAME in the app.

I have mailed them, requesting to change it. Any idea if they will entertain my request?

Hi,

I am yet to receive a reply on my selection/rejection - my interview got over in last week of Nov-16. My profile 700 GMAT, CFA/FRM and work-ex in debt capital markets.

How many folks got an admit as of yet - request if they can share their profile.

Regards
