I want to apply to GSAP next year and wanted to get you guy’s thoughts on my chances of approval: this PY my ratings were E/E/E but unfortunately last year it was S/B/S. Do I still have a shot? Also, I’ll be applying retroactively which also works against me but I have a strong GMAT and hoping to have acceptance from the school on hand by application cycle

Check the guidance, I’m not sure if having the B will disqualify you or not. However, applying retroactively means you are already accepted to the program when you submit your GSAP application.

Applying retroactive means you already have an acceptance and are going to B school. You go through the GSAP Cycle with that acceptance and “matriculate” with the folks who got approved last year. Typically, you’re already separated from the firm by the time you find out if you were accepted into GSAP, and that gets communicated via personal email.

Reach out to GSAP to be sure

I think you can qualify if this next PY you are in good standing with at least an S in client

Hi folks,

I have 9 years of experience as a QA out of which last 2-3 is an individual contributor (sole qa owner) plus team lead of a qa team.. I want to pursue masters in the UK so I can have a role like Project Manager/Test Manager/Scrum Master in the future.. what course should I go for:
1. MSc Management
2. Business Analysis and Consulting
3. MBA (not so easy as I don't want to give GMAT, will select certain colleges that do not need GMAT score)

Seeking direction in selecting the most cost effective and fastest route to become an MLS. I have a international STEM BSc (2014), 3 years of research lab experience, 1 year hospital lab experience and 2.5 years veterinary diagnostics experience. I live in Michigan and was told by two schools that my credits have to be less than five years old but I think they are trying to get me to pay more by staying in school for four years. Can anyone offer some guidance? Does my prior exp hold no value?
