In the application, under employment, under professional information it reads:
Months of full-time professional and military experience at matriculation on September 1, 2016. This excludes any undergraduate internships, summer employment, volunteer work, etc. (Value must be entered as a 1 to 3 digit number)
I think they meant 2017, correct? or do they actually want it for 2016?

Definitely an error. You will not even have matriculated by then. Inform the school if you want to be a good doobie.

Strongly recommend you attend the Booth networking events taking place next week in India, Middle East, Western NA and Mexico City. Great way to research, but also good essay fodder. Take down names. https://www.chicagobooth.edu/programs/fu ... ons/events Also, don't miss the live online chat with admissions on 7/13 https://www.chicagobooth.edu/programs/full-time/admissions/events/online-chats

There is a part in the booth application that says "number of times you received a full GMAT score"
What is the consensus on this position?
What if an applicant has taken the GMAT 4 times and has canceled 3 of their scores after seeing them and only kept 1?
Is the answer 4 or is it 1?
My take is that
1. This is an interesting question and somewhat odd
2. Booth is asking about how many full GMAT scores we have received, not how many times we have taken the GMAT, so this must refer to a full score of GMAT + AWA more likely than not?
3. If they wanted to know info about how many times we have taken the GMAT and how many records we have they could look at the score report but then are also asking to self-report the scores, so perhaps they are asking to self-report this too?
My conclusion at the moment that for the above scenario, it should be "1" as the answer. Any other perspectives?
