Hello Folks!!

I am a bit confused about essay 3. My GMAT score is 660 (Q47 V34), which falls in the mid 80% range of score. Should I use the optional essay to explain this score?


What I am going to advise you will be my personal thoughts and nothing else. I have done my research in past 6 months, but I am not a professional.

As I see it, you fall 40 points below the median score of 700. (Source - https://www.kenan-flagler.unc.edu/admiss ... ofile.aspx ) So it will not be entirely unreasonable if you explain yourself in the essay. In fact, it will only project your effort, and determination in joining UNC, to an adcom. If I were in your place, I would have definitely written that essay.

That said, it is for you to decide, for you are the best judge of yourself. You need to decide whether your GMAT score seems in sync with your past work performance and GPA or not? Did you give your 100% in the GMAT, or not? If not, what circumstances stopped you from doing so? Do you plan to retake the GMAT? If yes why, if no why not? Do you have other positive areas in the form of Resume and WE that can make up for your test score?

These are not the questions that I ask you, I am just trying to give you ideas for your 3rd essay :-D . Personally, I think its a decent score, but for UNC, it may be slightly less if your other records and essays are not exemplary.

In one section of the application UNC asks if you are going to retake the GMAT and when.

Interviewed today. Was way more stressed than I probably should have been. The office wasn't terribly busy so I got some one-on-one time with a current student after the interview to talk about a variety of things. Very nice people overall. I wish classes would have been in session so that I could have done a visit.

I saw the same issue yesterday, but I was able to see my resume upload date on the page. If you are facing issues while uploading, better check with admissions team I think.

Re: Calling all (UNC) Kenan-Flagler Applicants - Class of 2017 [#permalink]
Hi,

I am just reflecting on the Career Management Webinar from 01/08. How is the job scene at UNC and has it gone down a bit due to alot of changes in CMC or for any other reason?
Appreciate any inputs or counter point of view.

Thanks,
GMAT Club Bot
