Hi,
I applied several schools with horrible gmat score, but with good essay and background(big family business).
At the end of December, my consultant told me that my score is not even close to top schools and popular schools such as BU, BC, etc.
So I did not even apply to those top and popular schools.

However, at least, I want to try something now. I know its very late,
but do you know any schools in top 40 with rolling admission base has high acceptance rate after round 2 or 3?

Hello sksk0907,

I am not sure which region are you looking at, not sure of the scale of your business. However, based on your business background, you could consider

Babson - R3 March 3
Krannert (Purdue) - March 1
Carey - John Hopkins - April 15th

These are good programs too. You could give it a shot.

regards,
Shree

ostrick5465 This is a really great resource. Thank you for posting this. I just want everyone to know however that it's a little bit deceptive the statistics for round 3. They look like they are on par with the other rounds, but I just want to call out that.

In round 3 they are generally looking for more ***diverse*** applicants. So they might be willing to sacrifice on the stats a little in order to have more URM candidates or like, someone from New Guinea.

I would encourage you to consider applying to schools that have a bit later intake but not as late as fall.
Like January or March.

If you are open to Canadian or European Business School there are plenty of options and there are some options with US schools as well.

Ivey is just kicking off, and the top school in Canada.
