Most Business schools have questions exclusively for re-applicants asking about the changes in their profile from the previous time. Before you answer the question, we have covered six important questions that re-applicants should ask themselves before applying. 1) What was lacking last time? Several top Business Schools had introduced feedback sessions for dinged candidates. If you had the opportunity to attend the session, the AdCom would have given you feedback about your weak areas in the application. Understanding what was lacking last time is crucial for this year’s application. However, if AdCom was not explicit with their feedback then there might be several reasons for it. It might be due to diversity targets or lack of clear differentiation in the application. Each year, schools have to maintain nationality, gender and experience diversity. Visiting the class profile page and understanding the class composition would be useful. Find out what was lacking by answering the following questions: a) Were you part of a large application pool? (US Finance Applicant with 3+ GPA and 700+ GMAT) b) Was your GMAT score below the median by more than 20 points? c) Did you apply during Round 2 or 3? (Importance of Applying early) d) Did you fail to differentiate yourselves? f1gmat/six-questions-mba-reapplicants
