Finally applying in R1 this year for Msx, the only program I am applying to. Started working on the application a week or so ago and cant wait to get the essays out of the way! Lot of brainstorming work ahead and would love to know who else is on this journey.

Yup, same here. Only applying to MSx, also in R1.

The acceptance rate keeps getting lower every year. Few years ago, it was at 25%, now it's sitting at about 13%.

Also wondering, who all are applying with an EA score as opposed to GRE/GMAT?

­So true, was not thrilled when I saw the acceptance rate drop so steeply. I had it 25% in my mind as well, before I saw the latest data.
Applying with EA as well.

Hey Folks, Thanks for starting this thread Narenn. I have also started my application process. Are you all applying for MIT Sloan fellows as well?
Would you know a similar thread for MIT Sloan fellows? And what is the conversion rate for it?

Yes there is one for SFMBA https://gmatclub.com/forum/calling-all- ... l#p3235960

Conversion or acceptance rates have always been around 14-16% for Stanford MSx and 17-18% for MIT SFMBA. Please read the article by poets and quants on these programs.
https://poetsandquants.com/2023/01/20/s ... b-schools/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sloan_Fellows

Disclaimer - rates change slightly each year and international applicants have different acceptance rates. Number of seats also play a role MIT has arnd 110-115 spots while Stanford 70-85.
LBS SF is the smallest batch at around 65.

Hi All,

I intend to apply to MSx and Fellow in R2. Just got done with my GMAT and have a 655 - QA -90; VA -81 and DI -77. I think this score is on the lower side, was hoping for 685+. Plannng for a retake in mid-Oct.

I have around 11 years work ex in Hedge Fund Product and Solutions. Currently consulting with a buy side in Boston to help them with their Ops, tech and product related solutions.

Thanks

I am in a similar spot. I might have to postpone to R2 on account of expected changes at work with an expanded role and to improve my GRE score which is slightly below the median for MSx.

Any idea what is the Sloan/MsX average GMAT score? I heard its around 730 classic, which I find hard to believe. But nonetheless, for over represented group anything less than that is considered low.
