no Alumni here?😅

Not in the "New to GMAT Club" chatroom.... they are all busy working or studying... not waiting in the new member chatroom to wait for someone to ask them questions.

Sorry. You can check the live session with the HBS Student happening now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwRAJvdyF2g

You can ask your HBS-related questions there (he is not 2+2 however)

esp this year, students have been quite hard to reach. Many are stressed out about jobs and internships and also after pandemic, nobody seems to have the time anywhere 😥

Hey! I just started GMAT prep.

Are there major diff between Classic GMAT and GMAT Focus edition?

I read that New 650 = Old 700. Is there a chance that colleges will change their GMAT score requirements?

I was planning on taking Classic GMAT. But I feel like I don’t have much time left for that.

Should I still take classic GMAT before Jan 31 or prepare for Focus edition and take exams in 4 months? I’m Stressed

None to my knowledge. Most programs require you to have work experience, and then ones that don’t are “deferred programs” where you can apply and get admitted, but then work for a few years before you start courses - but those would require test scores.

Agreed. Maybe look into MsC or MsF programs. Even then itll be a rough sell
