It’s all about the fit. Smith offered everything I wanted from an MBA. I did consider Ivey and Rotman too as back up choices. I ended up only applying to Ivey and Smith and accepted Smith’s offer before Ivey could even respond.

Hi everyone!
I'm a dentist from India, graduated in 2020. I switched to corporate post my internship, and have been working as a project manager in the healthcare marketing and advertising industry since 2 years. I've also been promoted to Team Leader about 7 months ago.
My GRE score is 319, and I have decent academics and extracurriculars in my profile, including a review article published in an international journal and social work like organizing dental camps and mentoring underprivileged children.
I've submitted all the other requirements for the application to my application advisor from Queen's, only the Kira video assessment is pending. Was wondering what it's like and what kind of questions are asked; also just wanted to know my chances of getting an interview and potential admit.
If anyone has any tips or suggestions, do let me know!
Thanks :)

dranushka1497 - Hey, have they started accepting the applications already? My advisor told me that they'll start with the process in Feb.

Also, for the KIRA videos - you can find previous year questions on the forum and practice those. :)

I got an admit from Mcgill and Queen's both. The fee after scholarship is comparable too.

Any thoughts regarding the two schools would help a lot.
