Hi bb, I think it will be useful to display EA score, particularly for PT and EMBA programs given that EA is a new test and there still seem to be many questions about what an acceptable/good EA score is. I understand there is a place to fill in the EA score on decision tracker form, but it will be useful to actually display the score, just like GMAT and GRE scores under the score column. Perhaps this was the original intent but was somehow missed?

Thank you! I completely agree with the suggestion. I have been looking up and missing it as well! We give an option for people to provide the EA score but for some reason don't show it :(

Re: POLL: GMAT Club Decision Tracker Feedback [#permalink]
There are a couple of changes in the decision tracker I would like to suggest
Under primary industry, why don't we club "Healthcare" and "Pharma + Biotech" as one industry? In my experience, most schools club them together.
Is there a specific reason why we have kept them separate?

For GPA: It might be better if it is a free form entry. Rather than a required entry from a 4.0 scale. Because many applicants from other countries do not follow a 4.0 scale, e.g., A 8/10 CGPA translates to ~3.0 GPA on a 4 point scale. But my understanding is that that is not how Adcom sees it?
If someone with a GPA on 4 point scale in the US wants to have a competitive GPA for M7s, they probably should be around at least 3.3 - 3.4. But I have heard that a CGPA greater than 8 from IIT is good for M7s. So probably 8/10 translates to a 3.2 or 3.3 and not a 3 in such cases.
Others will have totals like 75% or something. So how do they convert that to a 4 point scale objectively and accurately?
Plus, somewhere in Europe (Germany, I think?), 1 is the highest GPA, and 4 is on the lower end of the same scale.

Finally, the work experience entry. Should everyone be entering their current WE or total WE if admitted on matriculation? I think we should make that 100% clear.
