Does anyone know about the career office at May's? Have read it somewhere that it isnt as great. The 100% placement is exaggerated considering most candidates have contacts in the Texas area. Opposition and advices welcome. 
Hi All
I am planning to apply for TExas A & M this fall...A few queries regarding the Application process...
Is it mandatory to apply for the Certificate Programmes or the Specializations...
If anybody can tell me about the practical advantages of pursuing such a Certificate Program or Specialisation after ur 16 week mba ..it would be great...I am asking this bcos the cost for those Extra 12 credit hours seems a bit too much to me...(comparing it with the normal 49 hour credit program of 16 months)
Kindly let me know what all specialisations or certificate programs u guys are opting for..
Regards
Soumadeep

I'll be applying for the Nov deadline
GMAT : 700 (48/3
, 5Has anyone here had any discussions with former TAMU Students abt the program/placements, etc?
Hi All,
I applied in R1 and got an interview call. I just get over with it.
The interview was an online Skype interview and lasted for 45 minutes! Honestly, time flew like a rocket for me! Never realizing that the talk went on for such a long time!
The questions were crisp, straight forward and very very direct. Mostly relating to the my current undertaking. We started with him asking me about my background and why did I chose my UG course. Then why my first company and my role there. As I have experience in two diversified industries, whole lot of talking happened along this line only. My 'transition' and 'growth prospects', as I see, were the focus of the talk.
The anxiety is still high as the interviewer made it wonderfully easy to not disclose his inclination at all. Whether he liked or disliked it, results would tell. He asked me to wait for 2 weeks time.
My Profile-
GMAT 700
AWA 5.5
TOEFL 103
Work Ex. 49 months
Industries - 2 - IT and Educational
Workline - Developer in IT, and Business Development Manager in the other
All the best to the prospective candidates. My experienced suggestion would be to develop yourself in position to answer straight questions and prepare yourself for a very deep scrutiny. Good Luck!
