I'm assuming you sent the report to them ASAP, right? Via email?


No - I was away interviewing elsewhere so I had to wait until I came back home. Did send it via e-mail when I returned, though, which was very recent.


Good. And good luck!

Doesn't an official score have to be sent from Pearson?

They just wanted to see a copy of the score. I just PDF'd it and sent it to them. That's what they asked for and when they received it they said it was all they needed.

I realized that my post may have come off more negatively than I had intended. Wasn't trying to be a wet blanket or anything, just trying to be informative.

No worries. Sorry fo the harsh response - you didn't come off negatively and I didn't mean to respond like that. lol Initially I thought they wanted the official score from Pearson, but the lady that sent me the e-mail said they just wanted a pdf copy.

I actually think its a VERY good sign. The day before they admitted me they asked for me to PDF my TOEFL scores. Got an admit the next day. Why would they ask for an official score unless they wanted to admit you?

That's great to hear! Hope it happens with me, too! And I agree with you - doesn't make any sense to ask for a PDF of the GMAT score if they weren't planning on admitting me.

Is it a good time to share an important update with the Ad Com i.e. post the interview? I havent in the past gotten involved with community services. I now have a chance to spend 3 weeks with an educational not for profit. Is it a good idea to share this update with the adcom?

At the least you should be sure you can articulate very clearly

-how significant an experience it was
-what your specific motivations were for joining it(aka not just "I hadn't done much community service work before")
-how it has changed you as a person. Future goals you want to achieve in the non-profit sector, takeaways that will make you a more well rounded student.

Otherwise such a claim reeks of 'I just did this to make my resume look better in your eyes'. If I'm an AdCom I'm thinking "why did he/she suddenly decide to do this now and not before?"

Just my $0.02.

If you are going to spend 3 weeks (in the future) I feel that is not something you should share since you have not learned anything from the experience. Also it seems as though you are waiting for a R2 decision? In which case I do not know if there is enough time to add it to your application.

My 3 cents.

So I haven't heard anything and I submitted the PDF copy on Friday - so maybe it wasn't a good sign, after all.
