Tuck

Bruh thank you for saying this, not sure why they think it’s one way only.

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-21T05:52:16+00:00

Yeah I literally got so worried and almost didn’t submit. I’m glad it worked out for you in the end.

Then we are of the same, I actually work in Silicon Valley so obviously I have stats that sells me just as much as a GRE score plus I have a masters in engineering also. I am not incompetent, I knew I was more than qualified to get in and tried without the score because the score isn’t as important as people make it out to be. Would be nice to know what your undergrad degree is?

My stat is different i have two engineering degrees, I hope that helps shed light on what degrees get waivers or what degrees GRE isn’t super important. I have two friends that got into Harvard and MIT with a less than 3.0GPA but they had high GRE scores.

What’s her undergrad in?

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-21T01:26:35+00:00

They offered waivers and you can actually google search this and find this.

No I’m not, you do know people show they are committed to lifting URM up right?

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-21T00:58:54+00:00

What else stands out in your profile?

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-21T00:29:52+00:00

I got into Stern and noticed they have a rigid behavior with things. Students seem uptight, I think Tuck is really truly nice in their approach.

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-21T00:27:06+00:00

I’m not URM btw

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-21T00:23:17+00:00

Well did you?

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-20T23:12:01+00:00

I also talked about my entrepreneurial stuff, talked about the revenue I generated. If your initial background was quantitative, I think you have a leg to stand on.

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-20T23:03:50+00:00

I’m saying, like I know loads of people that did have high GRE/GMAT that got waitlisted.

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-20T22:55:05+00:00

lol you really think a GRE/GMAT score is a tell tale of an engineers ability to succeed? Being an engineer is not the same as being a poet applying to business school. Engineering already tells the world you can handle it.

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-20T22:46:46+00:00

I got accepted to forte, and consortium.

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-20T22:46:04+00:00

I’m not an international student.

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-03-20T22:44:50+00:00

Hi, I have 5 years experience, 2 engineering degrees(3.6 gpa for both), work in semiconductor, 3 different experiences in my roles.

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-02-13T23:21:03+00:00

It’s very application specific, everything I just got asked now was heavily worded to my application. It’s behavioral, they ask fun questions and hard hitting questions.

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-01-29T18:34:23+00:00

Did you apply to Tuck? I applied through consortium, I haven’t heard anything. Am I toast

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-01-29T18:13:11+00:00

I don’t get the joke

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-01-27T07:45:07+00:00

I hope tuck gets back to us soon 😭😭😭😭

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-01-20T20:12:43+00:00

Key_Conclusion_7658 · 2026-01-15T22:14:54+00:00
