Hi Shalinikumari93,

Most MBA programs have three rounds of admissions; we typically discourage clients from applying to the third round, as the probability of admission is much lower.

We recommend you give yourself ample time to retake the GMAT should you score be less than ideal. You are allowed to retake the test every 16 days, for a maximum of 5 times in any 12 month period. You should strategically target your test based on the round of admission you are targetting as well as give yourself ample time to re-take.

If you are interested in continuing the conversation, please reach out to coordinate a free consultation (contact details in signature).

Good luck!

Hello Shalinikumari93

If your question is are there schools which begin a class in Spring then yes, there definitely are. The best time to take the GMAT would be now, as the deadlines for R3 of such program are fast approaching. And applying in R3 can always be an issue from an acceptance point of view.
Let me know if you wish to discuss this further.

Hi Shalinikumari93,

Yes, there are MBA programs which have a Spring intake. However, whether they would be suitable for you would depend on a) your GMAT score and b) your overall profile and career goals. having said that, it is better that you apply to programs in the first round or at the maximum in the second round since your chances of admission will be best then. You could take the GMAT about three weeks prior to the deadline of the said program (latest). This will ensure that you have all the necessary requirements in hand.

In case you wish to discuss your prospects in greater detail, feel free to let us know.

All the best!

Hello Shalinikumari93

Some European schools have a Jan intake.
The applications for that are already on. These schools usually have rolling rounds and R1 for most would be over by now. R2 deadline is approaching fast or has gone by for some schools.
It is advisable to apply in R2. But I am speaking generally, all of the above will need to be seen from the specific school's perspective.

Please see an example below for INSEAD Jan 19 intake deadlines. As you can see R2 is over. But the exact dates will be different for each school. Where are you planning to apply and what stage of application are you at?

INSEAD MBA Deadlines: January 2019 Intake!

Hi there,
You can find a list of top MBA programs with January or spring intake here: https://aringo.com/mba-january-programs/
After you select a program, check its deadlines on the school website (or our website) so you can plan ahead for your GMAT and application timeline. Good luck!
