Submitted about a week ago. It says awaiting transcripts for my two study abroad programs, however all study abroad info is on my main transcript only. Should I write to the adcom and let them know this or they'll figure it out while reviewing my application? And if they do contact me and request more info that is when I can tell them?

Email them or give them a call to clarify. It's early on so you'll want your app materials to be all set.

Submitted last night and just finished video questions. Wow! Those video questions are interesting. I recommend practicing (there's a practice tool) because I was tripping over my tongue the first few times. Feels good to have everything in. Fingers crossed!

Nope all of mine were very straightforward. Why MBA, question about a work problem and then a general opinion question. I was really nervous for the first which sucks bc should be the easiest to answer but felt good about my other two answers. Good luck!

got why mba now... tell about a project you had to break down and actions you took... and 'as someone once said as businesses become more global, cultural differences become minimized.' do you agree or disagreee

i stumbled badly on the last one. really badly.

First and third there's about 20 secs to think and 60 secs to respond. Second one has 30 secs to think and 90 secs to respond.

These details are available in the application status page below the link to the portal.
