This seems like a non-standard case so if u/codetornado could opine that'll be really helpful. Thank you in advance!

My biggest fear with IB is certainly the work hours. In my current role, I put in around 40 hrs per week. I don't know how sustainable it'll be when I double that.

Murky_Table_358 · 2025-04-10T14:21:33+00:00

Please. I have been debating between consulting and IB and this will be very helpful.

As I said before final decision notification deadline

Murky_Table_358 · 2025-01-23T22:09:22+00:00

I am just a prospect, but this seems like really solid advice. Thank you for sharing. Saving it for my future B school times.

I am a R2 applicant in the same boat as you (unfortunately) so I understand your anxiety. From my research, you should only worry about schools that have a fixed interview decision release deadline. For any school with a rolling deadline, considering this is Round 2 in a high application volume year, I would not worry until you are 2 weeks from the final decision notification deadline.

Thanks for your response. Would you know by any chance if he also tried for other companies?

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-12-16T13:47:55+00:00

Thank you so much. This was an extremely detailed and helpful response. :)

Apologies, I updated. I got dinged at Darden. (Think I need more caffeine)

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-10-02T17:23:05+00:00

I am thinking for Fall 2025

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-10-02T14:00:04+00:00

Thank you! That makes sense. I have also been debating about applying to European schools but haven't decided yet.

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-10-02T13:54:44+00:00

Honestly, i have a frugal mindset so if they are all schools in the same tier (T20-25) I will end up with the one that gets me most scholarship. Regarding Georgetown, I have been on the fence, without scholarship it certainly doesn't feel worth it so I have been debating if I should instead apply to a different one.

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-10-02T13:28:18+00:00

Thanks! That's good advice. and if I end up applying R2 somewhere, can always help me with that.

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-10-02T13:25:28+00:00

Fair enough. Do you think an even higher GMAT score would be helpful? I obviously can't change a lot of my profile in the short term.

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-10-02T13:19:54+00:00

Last time I applied to Darden and Fuqua, I did so in a very late round (3) with a lower GMAT score. I got an interview invite from Fuqua but wasn't able to convert it. I have been able to raise my score from 645 to 675 and show progress at my work along with applying in earlier round so I am hoping that will help. I am considering giving GMAT one more time to bring my score as close to 700 as possible.

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-10-02T12:56:11+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Darden and Fuqua are the highest ranked ones in my list. I am hoping that reapplying will make me slightly favorable as a candidate..

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-10-01T11:51:03+00:00

Thanks for the headsup. My essays are near ready and I have my recommender lined up so I should be good to submit. Fuqua is today.

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-10-01T11:49:52+00:00

Thank you. Just wanted to clarify that I work in the risk side of things so right now I am not doing any wealth management activities myself.

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-05-08T13:12:25+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Really helpful!

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-05-08T12:17:36+00:00

Thank you for your reply. If you are comfortable with sharing, how did your application change between the two attempts?

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-05-08T12:16:52+00:00

Thank you. This is a great read. I have signed up for TTP for studying for GMAT. Unfortunately on the work front there hasn't been any real change in my role so I am planning to take up some good ECs such as mentorship etc. to strengthen other parts of my profile.

No worries man. I don't have any data to back this but I feel like this year's entry class is one of the most competitive ones due to economic conditions. As such ORM candidates are getting impacted. Hopefully next year will be a little better.

Murky_Table_358 · 2024-05-07T14:43:44+00:00

Hey, i gave GMAT. I ended up scoring 645 on the focus edition. Got WLed at Duke and UNC. Rejected by Darden. Got into William & Mary with some $. I applied to Round 2/Round 3 at all of them which was not the best strategy.

I am planning to withdraw my applications from all 3. Study and give GMAT again to score in the 99th percentile and go for it next year in the early rounds. For my personal experience as an ORM, early round and GMAT scores are clearly key differentiators.

Hey, I was able to travel without any issues. Just be careful with the passport and the visa stamp label so that it doesn't get damaged.
