Admissions committees evaluate the GMAT/GRE in context — your background, your representation in the applicant pool, the strength of everything else in your file. The same score works for one candidate and falls short for another with identical numbers.

Hey all!
I have probably lurked on and off for about the past year as I have prepared for the GMAT and appraised the MAcc admissions process. I was hoping to come out of the woodwork when the "2012 Unite!" thread came out but, sadly, that never happened. This forum has been dead, which is a shame since there aren't many outlets for people to share first-hand experiences regarding their MAcc/MSA application process. So, I hope fellow lurkers (I know you're out there) sign up and dormant posters come back as we get into the busiest time in the process. I'll start us off!
MAcc - Audit or Audit Systems track
Schools:
Arkansas - admitted with graduate assistantship
Georgia - admitted (still waiting to hear about assistantship)
Profile:
3.9 GPA undergrad - accounting major
710 GMAT
Big4 audit internship
So. . . Let's hear it!
PS: I know a lot of you on here do not have an accounting background, so if you have any questions regarding Big4 audit internships, the recruiting/interview process, etc., please start a thread and I will jump in and do my best to answer any questions. Let's keep this thread just for applications, profiles, and admissions decisions though.

Was wondering when this would get started.
I only applied to one program and got into today! Was getting a little nervous.
GPA: 3.48
Major: Sociology (I can't tell you how glad I am to get to go to a program without prereqs... I tried the job market for several months after graduation and with a Soc degree there was almost nothing out there)
GMAT: 680
School: UNC
I applied for the Dec. 1 deadline but had a prof blow off my recommendation so I didn't get everything in until the 17th of Dec. I interviewed on January 9th and got my acceptance email today (the 25th).
I applied to about 15 schools for undergrad and the whole process was incredibly more stressful. Can't wait to start in May.
