Hi. If you have signed up for the MBA Spotlight, you should have it activated within 24 hrs of signing up until the deadline, which I think has passed maybe... 😬

How MBA Spotlight Fair Works:

Each session will be 45 mins (maybe a tiny bit longer).
Each session will have School AdCom
You can join sessions on either day or both (different times). These are Top MBA programs (we have 17 out of top 20 joining).
The size of each of the Zoom Sessions will likely be sizeable but many will be there to listen in and understand what’s happening. The AdCom will likely spend 10-15 mins to share news about the MBA Program and what’s new in 2023-2024 application season. What to expect and how great they are 😇

You can pop in and out of the sessions if you want. You will notice that there are a number of sessions happening simultaneously. Below is a screenshot of schedule for our Pacific US Time zone. We will start at 6 AM PST and go till about 11 with Business Schools and then will have a Speed Networking session where you will join a group of 5-6 other applicants for 10 mins and the group will change every 10 mins to keep it fast and fun.

Let me know what other questions you may have.

I have registered for few spotlight events. How do I come to know whether I got a application fee waiver or no?

Hi. You will need to attend the AdCom Zoom Session to receive or in some cases win app fee waiver (if there is not enough for all attendees, there will be a drawing)

We have 6 days to MBA Spotlight! For the list of all App Fee Waivers, you can see this page: app-fee-waivers-prizes-you-can-win-at-mba-spotlight-june-413343.html

propinopia · Answer

I have a prolonged fear of GMAT, how to overcome the same?
In last 2 mocks, I got Q83, V77, D70 and Q76, V84, D68. It’s been fluctuating, i am not sure what’s going wrong

Businessconquerer · Answer

Are you scoring in the expected range?

propinopia · Answer

No not really, I scored 575 in my first mock, post that I have been in the range of 475-535
I am really scared, because no 2 sections are getting correct at a time which could help w the desired score

I am facing issues with MSR and Graphs, never gets correct

In Quant and Verbal it is not a concept gap as Q83 means 15/21 and V84 means 17/23

Businessconquerer · Answer

Then you’re not ready for mock tests yet.

Focus on accuracy. And solve only official GMAT & LSAT (RC/CR) questions. Unless you can say this phrase, don’t attempt another mock-
"I can see the patterns in the wrong choices and I’m right for the right reasons"

Sorry for the typos if any, I’m on my phone so can’t see what I’m typing after a few lines

propinopia · Answer

As i said, In Quant and Verbal it is not a concept gap as Q83 means 15/21 and V84 means 17/23. No two sections at par with marks

Businessconquerer · Answer

Yeah I know, you’ll still not get above 645 with that. Hence the suggestion
