Hi Anand, I didnt get the admit but the MBS people have asked me for reconsideration in their Jan 2009 intake. The reason given was a standard one, but they also said that they advise students for the next round intake if the VISA formalities may take time. I had applied quite late and my Visa couldnt have come before the start of the session. So I guess I am still in the race. What about you? have you applied to MBS or AGSM?

nirvikar,

I also got an offer from AGSM for Jan, 09. I don't know if you have done enough research on AGSM but I just had a couple of questions regarding the school. the 2004 acceptance rate according to businessweek was 64%. That's every 2 in 3 people getting in. What does that say about the selectivity of the school? Have you seen any of the more recent selectivity numbers? Also, what are your thoughts about job prospects after graduating?
