Hello Linda

Thank you for your e-mail. As per my GPA, may I know how beneficial my good-honors Master's degree from Germany will be?. In addition, I spent one-year, Sophomore class, at the Lebanese American University, in which I got a cumulative GPA of 3.6 Should I mention this year in my application ?

In order to strengthen my admission chances at LBS and INSEAD, what measures should I take? The fact is that I am losing time especially regarding LBS second-round deadline, and I will not be able to sit for a GMAT before that date.

Thank you very much.

Nantar,

I can't quantify how much the master's degree will help, but it certainly will do so, as well the year at the Lebanese American University. If the transcript from that year is part of your overall transcript, then you don't need to mention it separately. If it is not shown separately, then you may want to include that fact, but you also have to have a good place to include that tidbit.

To improve your chances, improve your GMAT, especially the verbal score.

Good luck!

The experience at the Lebanese American University is valuable in the sense that it provides further context to your undergrad record. In addition, the German degree helps demonstrate that you can succeed in a a variety of academic/linguistic environments.
