What has been the general feedback? How many got through? what kind of profiles got short listed? I got dinged so I need to understand how competitive my profile is!

Hi Everyone,

I am a Round 1 admit and a re-applicant. I had applied last year with a GMAT score of 750 but got dinged after the interview process. So from my experience, I can say that GMAT is just one of the parameters that CJBS evaluates. I remember last year there were several candidates who got a score of 690 - 720 and got admitted. So don't stress a lot on GMAT. I would say that the essay section is critical and I believe, it is imperative to articulate your career goals clearly. So give GMAT your best shot, but don't miss out on other sections.

Yeah I think CJBS focuses a lot on essays and the LoR.

Congratulations on your offer! Well done - takes a lot of patience and faith to reapply I imagine :)

Hi everyone,

I just received links to complete Kira talent videos for scholarships I applied for. Has anyone done this in the past? What kind of questions can I expect? I can't locate any examples online..

Help would be much appreciated; there seems to be a short turnaround for this one!

Hi,

I'm wondering about when did the round 1 applicant know the result after an interview? Is it right after the interview period is over(For round 1, that was 30/10)?

Thank you

There was no set pattern for Round1. Their justification is different teams look at different profiles. So it varied from as soon as next day to even 2 weeks after all interviews got done. Good Luck!!

Can you get a bursary and a scholarship? Or if you get a bursary (just got mine) means there is no other scholarship?

Hey guys, so I am in the last stage of my applications. I have a question :-
Under "Work Experience" section -
Challenges "What has been your most significant professional challenge? (200 word limit)" and
Accomplishment "What has been your most significant professional achievement? (200 word limit)"

Do these need to be cited from Current Employment? These questions seem to be continuation of "Current Employment" but I wanted to mention from my previous experiences as its just been few months in my startup experience and don't have a significant accomplishment to mention.

Another question - Somewhere in Marketing section - it asks if you used Admissions Consultant - Is it ok to tick that to Yes?

troubletrouble - could you help if you are still around
