Hey guys,

So, I'm gearing up one last time to take the GMAT one last time. Does anyone know when the latest is to submit scores? I'm like to give myself as much time as I can.

There are plenty of numbers out there but unfortunately the variance is high. 2 years ago they pulled 80+ off the waitlist. Last year it was something like 5.

I'm just taking the GMAT again. I'm not going to count on slipping through on good graces.

I haven't heard anything since being placed on the waitlist. I reached out to a few student advisors and they said they'll get me everything they can. The veterans club said the same.

Thank you!!!

I got an E-mail to check the portal. I called them to make sure it wasn't a mistake. Probably not the most professional thing I've ever done, But I was heartbroken after the waitlist and wanted to make sure.
