Wow.. Great news, Shams... So which are u choosing now? 😉

thanks guys !

my understanding of this whole schol thingy :
for lower ranked b schools, yes, its ur score which matters a lot for schol and admit decisions. for top 10, ur scores are just yet another parameter for an admit, and are less important, because they get thousands of applicants with 750+ scores

i think i got the schol because :
1. my essays were sincere, simple and passionate
2. my gmat was good
3. my interview, in person, went very well
4. i had been talking to alums and adcomm for more than a year and a half, since babson was always one of my top choices. so they knew of my interest in the school


about babson, well, one fine day they realized they cant compete with the two biggies in new england - namely harvard and MIT, on all fronts. so they decided to pick a couple of things and be better than them at that. thats when the whole entrepreneurship funda started. another interesting thing is that their first yr is structured very differently from usual mba programs. the classes are integrated, same case studies being taught by different professors from different disciplines - the idea is that when u are doing business, u cant say, well am a marketing guru .. i cant analyze the financial implications of a marketing decision. they have an "entrepreneurship intensity track" in their second yr, which is selective, and folks in that are expected to float a business venture before the end of their stay at babson. chota seed capital.office space. contacts. prof and alum advisors - u get all the support systems u want.


simba, i am waiting for results from the other 2 schools i apped to , namely ISB and MIT , so still too early for me to say 😃

Congrats arboreal
can u tell us what was ur Gmat and toefl score. And also the work experience u have. is it really necessary to have a work experience to get admitted into a B-school.

i had a 770 in gmat. i got a toefl waiver. 4 yrs work ex at matriculation

work ex is necessary for u to get the max leverage out of ur MBA. lots of lower ranked schools do admit u without work ex, but ur chances at schols get limited. top 10 schools would be tuff to get into without good work ex, though if u are a superstar and have taken on leadership roles early on, in ur college xtras for example, there are schools like HBS and Stan which does encourage such superstars to apply
