I just found out that I passed Level I. I submitted my apps a week ago. Should I inform the schools or is it not a big deal? Please let me know what you guys think. Thanks.

Congrats... I certainly let them know that I passed L1... I think it certainly shows that you have that stats, FSA, econ, whatever experience... I'm working on L2 now.

Depends.

If it's UCLA, HAAS, or Chicago GSB, I wouldn't bother. :)

Definitely let them know, it certainly won't hurt your status.

I wouldn't. You are still studying for CFA Accreditation. I guess you should have addressed the fact you are studying it but you have passed one of three exams.

Well done though.

I would let them know. I think a lot of people sign up for L1 just to put it on their resume (and never seriously pursue it), and it would be a way for you to distinguish yourself from these people.

gmatclb--why do you say don't bother with those schools? You don't think it will move the dial much?

Thanks guys. I think I'll send them an email. naturallight - I think gmatclb is applying to those schools! Are you a charterholder?

gmatclb - Don't worry I'm not applying to Haas or UCLA. Sorry about GSB.

Ahh, I see. Yeah, just got the ol charter. It was brutal.

Yeah, I was WL at Chicago and will be dinged at Haas (since I have not yet received an interview invite).

UCLA has a good program and I nearly applied there but went with NYU at the last second. I really should have applied to UCLA instead of Sloan, because I probably have no chance at Sloan.

Shoulda, woulda, coulda

Hello from the GMAT Club MBAbot!

Thanks to another GMAT Club member, I have just discovered this valuable topic, yet it had no discussion for over a year. I am now bumping it up - doing my job. I think you may find it valuable (esp those replies with Kudos).

Want to see all other topics I dig out? Follow me (click follow button on profile). You will receive a summary of all topics I bump in your profile area as well as via email.
