btw- y do u ask..???

Sam

OK... Thanks. Why do I ask? Because I am interested in foreign B-schools, that's why! And I was under the impression that students in all the top B-schools have at least 2-3 years of work experience... And that 5-6 years was the average.

So, 9 months of work ex, 710 GMAT... Sounds pretty good... Easier (and of course, better) than trying to get 99.9 percentile in CAT to get into IIM-A, right?


CAT 2007: 99.31 percentile (1 Call, 0 Converts).

CAT 2008: Work in progress.

It seems that the Indian/Asian applicants will have to wait more!!

While someone in Zurich and someone in USA had received invitation for interview by Jan 31, there has been not much on this side of earth!

Keeping fingers crossed!!
