I noticed that a lot of the people in this bowl (myself include) come from consulting. I try to take peoples advice with a grain of salt. Most of the people here are getting most of their application knowledge from that same bubble/group of hyper compatible and academically successful people. So when you mix that all together if you don’t fit the “mold” it can make you feel behind or a lower tier than your peers here.
Agreed! Couldn’t have said it better myself
Congratulations!!!! Could I ask your story if you don’t mind sharing?
Not active enough on FB to DM 🥲 would you mind sharing a snippet here please? ☺️

Congrats OP 💙 it’s not all about the stats and numbers

Yeah important but not the only thing. Why is everyone at Deloitte a robot? Be an interesting, compelling candidate not some run of the mill PPT jockey

Well done OP!! I’m sure you deserve it, good for you!💪🏼
Congrats!! Also an ORM and this gives me some hope for R1 next year
Are you a woman?
Wonderful! I tell people this all the time- the GMAT/GRE scores really really don’t matter that much. You need to land in their accepted range and that’s about it. They move on immediately to your other experiences and credentials.
Did you have a very high gpa from a top tier undergrad and work at MBB? Congrats, but forgive me for being skeptical that you didn’t have something else going for you like your grades or work experience. The data suggests that you had something else very positive about your app to get into those schools.
Well kudos to you. Glad you could overcome the steep odds that you had to face in your applications.
