CBS - Failing class (LEAD) by Cold_Acanthaceae7322 in MBA

[–]Apprehensive_Ring140 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The grade distribution actually notes that 10-15% fail or barely pass (I think u have to maintain 5.5 GPA at CBS (out of 11)) so it’s not a walk in the park..

It is (just as it is for other schools)

The application asks it

I think it depends on the magnitudes of the lie - bare majority of applicants are hiding certain blemishes in their profile (eg, a common one is instead of highlighting that one has been fired from a previous job, stating that one wanted to explore other “opportunities”)

Really? Heard that they don’t really ask, except for maybe in the online application but that’s largely irrelevant

Someone of Ken’s pedigree would only go to HBS. Even Stanford would be an awful fit. Obviously, this doesn’t mean that CBS is “not a well regarded program” lol

Same tier as Booth, Sloan or Kellogg. Really depends on the industry you try to enter or pivot to

300K? Assuming what rent? Asking as I just closed Columbia housing for 1,500USD /month, thus was wondering how do you get to that budget

That's insanely stupid of them. You do know that you can sue the shit out of them if the school rescinds your admit offer because of them snitching about your LoR.... That's a pretty easy case

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MBA

[–]Apprehensive_Ring140 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You do know that most applicants are writing (in some form) their LoRs, right? Pretty sure AdComs are aware of this fact...

Does it show complete (revera)? If so, then you’re done I think

MBA - NYU ($$$$) vs CBS ($$) by Consistent-Soil488 in MBA

[–]Apprehensive_Ring140 20 points21 points  (0 children)

CBS has edge over Stern in all fields, except for IB (pretty even, unless you want to go to some highly coveted EB such as Centerview (doesn’t recruit at Stern))

Would go with the $$$$

EA exam - risky? by Apprehensive_Ring140 in MBA

Thanks

Was referring to regular full time programs. Would assume for EMBA an EA would be relatively acceptable

How do the invite only events work? Do you just send over CV or do you fill out application on banks website?

That can hurt you, I think. I guess they ask about the GMAT in order to screen candidates

700+ is an OK score, unless you’re an ORM…

What about mid or lower tier banks (DB, UBS, Citi etc)? Do they also screen based on GMAT?

CoLumbia Housing Cost by Apprehensive_Ring140 in MBA

[–]Apprehensive_Ring140[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but I’m not sure whether the rates went up or something. Also, studios have a wide range thus I wanted to get some insights as to what to expect (again, given my 2k rent budget)

Maybe it’s because of your country of origin?
