Keep in touch...we can get in touch when we get down to the grind of apping.

What thaa...!! u got a 770 with 2 weeks of prep?!!! u`re a genius man!
well...so we`re both on the same boat (except that with 770 and 4 years work ex, u have chances at much much better univs than i do). i`m pretty sure u can make it into the top 10-15. me, i think i`ll be better off in the 20-30 band. Will keep in touch, it`s great to have someone to look up to!

is it possible for guys with 2 years of work-ex to get an admit in top US B-Schools?
I am a computer engineer graduated 2005 and have 4 months of work-ex. When do you think is the right time for me to give GMAT and apply to US univs???

sorry i didn`t reply to this earlier. As i said in my last post, i`m not apping this year...will wait for fall 2007. my opinion on your scene:
yes, it is possible to get into good schools with 2 yrs, but it`s an uphill task. i mean, 2 years is the minimum work ex required...and most ppl will have much more than 2 yrs ex. since u are apping with the minimum work ex, u better have some very strong achievements and differentiating factors in ur package that will make u stand out from the crowd. some community service, initiatives at work, some leadership exposure at work or outside, some interesting life experiences etc will be able to take u to good schools even with 2 years. but to be honest, top 10 may not be in ur reach for now...this is just a personal opinion, dont get discouraged...take it as a challenge.
if u aim to app in fall 2007, u shud take the GMAT around june-august 2006 and aim to apply in the early deadline of november. u`ll have better chances of admission in to good univs if u applied for 2008, but the decision is urs.

hec, your overall profile is good, but the gmat score is way too low. i suggest u take the gmat again. sorry to be rude, but u may not get calls from ISB ao AIM, but GLIM might be possible. consult with the GLIM students on this forum.
sorry to all those who`ve PMed me but i havnt replied coz i`ve been a lil busy with my (now aborted) application attempt! will be putting up a prep material assessment soon.
