Hi Nikhil, I wanted to ask that does an earlier GMAT score of 760, say 4 years earlier, counts any lesser than the same score of 760 but for a test attempt which is given in the year of applying ?

Also, an addition to previous question, does the Adcom has any preference for Offline vs Online GMAT ?

I think this question wasn’t covered in the session, can anyone clarify ?

Yes. I think it wasn’t covered. They took a lot of time for presentation so we had limited time for Q&A.

To answer your question, I don’t think it matters when you took the exam as long as it is valid

Just another person chiming in to say that it definitely does not matter -- to ANY program's adcom, that I have ever worked on with clients -- WHEN your score is from as long as it's still valid (within the past 5 years, I believe).

Is there any number of professional work experience years required to apply to the mba?

Also, is there a part time mba option at Wharton?

No minimum for the full-time MBA but this page explains more about their expectations: https://mba.wharton.upenn.edu/work-experience/ And for the Exec program, the average work experience is much more (12 years vs 4 years).

I doubt it… usually the advice is to play it safe with BSchool essays. There is no reward for originality… they want to see something proven and something that has worked for others 😎
