If omission consider lying in application? [#permalink] New post   17 Feb 2012, 20:05
In 2009, I graduated with BBA and I joined teaching. As a teacher, I went through a Post-graduate diploma and got a 3.4/5.

In the application, they stated include "Please list your university qualifications in chronological order starting from your highest qualification. You do not need to key in your pre-university qualifications.". Can I don't include my 3.4/5 as it is very bad? I am sure that the local adcom will know I has gone through the Post-graduate diploma

Hi,

I'm not too sure if Adcomm would like you omitting anything from your application specially since they would be able to evaluate your profile. An additional diploma could set you apart from the herd or push you in. You have to decide where will it push you. I think if you dont want to show it as a qualification you can add it to your certifications & write about it in your essays.

Further I recommend you get in touch with the school you applying for to just be 100% sure.

Hope this helps !!!

I think it would be better to include it from the start. They'll likely inquire about it if you don't, which will then lead to follow-up questions about why you didn't include it in the first place.

I believe you should be truthful in stating all of your educational degree starting from the most recent. You can always explain your GPA in your essays .
I hope it helped.

If I put the post graduate diploma in my application form, must I put it into my CV?
