Hi, Could anyone let me know for International applicants is it fine to apply with GMAT waiver or giving GMAT is better

Hi sanj1998,

Ideally, applying with a good GMAT score is what will give you your best chance. GMAT waivers are a recent trend and unless you are extremely confident that your profile is highly differentiated, you should not apply without a GMAT score.

All the best!

I have a question regarding video assessment

Just submitted my application, but I haven't done the video assessment yet. I'm waiting for the payment link which should arrive within 48 hours. I can only take the video assessment after paying the application fee. The deadline for Round 1 is October 15th. I want to know if I'll still be considered for Round 1 if I complete the video assessment after October 15th.

Does anyone have any idea?

you can do it after the deadline. the deadline is for your written application.

the video assessment is like 5 questions in which you can take 1-2 minutes each to answer and is after the deadline

Hi,

I have a silly question.
Is it necessary to put the essay prompt in the response? Does it not impact the word count by mistake?

I think it’s better to include the prompt to, and that words are counted only for the answer.

I guess the system is set as follows:

1. If the exam date is prior to 7th Nov 2023, then the options will show only legacy ones.

2. If the exam date is between 7th Nov 2023 to 31st Jan 2024, then there is an option to select the version.

3. If the exam date is after 31st Jan, then only focused fields are available.

Feel free to correct if I’m wrong.

Does anyone know if retakes are allowed in the video assessment? I don't see anything about them being allowed/not allowed.

I don’t think retakes are allowed.

Can someone please confirm if we need to send the official transcripts and official GMAT scores via testing agency right away or after getting final admits ?
