Hey guys, glad to see that other people from GMAT Club have applied for the SIM Master. I'm also waiting for the answer, "Material Prüfung II" atm. Not too confident about my chances, seems that so many high calibre candidates are applying!

With a GPA of 4.96/6 and GMAT 720, I'm aiming 64-65 points, then we'll see how they score the cover letter and extracurricular activites...

Oh and I come from the french part of Switzerland, not really adding any diversity either haha

Anyway, best of luck and hopefully see you in September!!

Hey guys,
I score about 67 points for criteria a) and b), so if I were to make the 15 point threshold for c) and d) I would be accepted in round 2. I am from Germany and have plenty work experience but little international experience except for a 3-month internship in Spain. I have a second (technical) bachelor degree, but I'm not sure that helps. Do you guys think that with that record alone, I have a chance to receive at least 10 points for d)?

Not too confident either. Cool de voir des francophones ;)

I try to convince myself that the people on this forum, because they are on this forum, have positively correlated GMAT scores and profile ... Which might as well be true but it just seems like they are a LOT of excellent candidates.

Wait and see, wait and see. Looking forward to having someone being accepted so it would mean that the process is finally underway.

Je pense pas que ce soit si "cool" de voir des francophones sachant qu'ils n'en voudront pas 40:(

I am beginning to doubt a lot: with my 40 points for the GMAT and my GPA 4.89, it gives me 59 points... Hope they will like my background and profile...

Can't wait anymore!

What are your other options?

I have been admitted to Bocconi MSc in International Management and ESADE MSc in International Management + CEMS.

May I see some you there if we don't succeed with SIM?

Hi guys,

I too applied for the SIM program. My current status has been "Materielle Prufung II" for a while now. Good to see many more SIM candidates here!

I am from India and grew up in Singapore/Hong Kong and have 750 on the GMAT and a GPa that is about 5.1/6. Currently working in Banking.

Been admitted to LBS & HEC but waiting for Gallen! One question though, I am not a German speaker, do you guys happen to know how the job opportunities for Non-German speakers are after the SIM program?

All the best to everyone awaiting the results!

I think there are good opportunities to get a job after the SIM program. Even in whole Europe your chances will be high and in the banking sector English is the main language.

I think with your profile your chances are high to get admitted to the SIM, even though not directly in the first round.

Hi Expertus,

Thanks for your feedback!

I was a bit concerned because I am looking to shift into Consulting/Fund Management upon graduation. The consulting club events at the university seemed to be open mostly to German speakers so I wasn't sure how important German language skills are.

Based on my understanding as of now, I believe its quite important for consulting roles but not that important for banking. Do correct me if i am wrong :)

In general, I'm sure you don't have to worry about job opportunities with a SIM degree ;-)

My status is still MPII ok, last year around this time the first people were already admitted. So I guess we can expect some admissions soon!

Hi guys,

it's nice to see that I am not the only one going crazy on that serviceportal page! Obviously I have applied too and my status is still on MPII ok as for many of you. I hope we'll get some news this week.

Best of luck!

True words! I definitely think we should receive the results by the end of the week, they almost had one month by now to come to a decision..
