Is it worth applying in R3 to stern?

Denied from Darden R1. Waitlisted at a T15 and accepted at a T15 (lower ranking than waitlisted school). My gut says it’s not worth it since stern is technically a higher ranking than all I’ve applied to and R3 is going to be even more difficult to differentiate myself, but then again it seems Deloitte has a high admissions rate.

Thoughts? Deadline is 1/15 so I’d have to scramble everything together this week, which may be a challenge amongst year end prep

Go for it. It’s been a competitive year, yields will be interesting as the market stays hot and folks decide whether it’s truly time to leave for school. For your waitlist I’d stay optimistic, and if it’s your number one keep in contact and see what you can do to bring up the score (if you want)

Sorry man. I’d try to get through and apply.

Year end prep takes max 1 day come on. Comfortable sharing GMAT?

I have a ton of other work in juggling too so it’s really just a cherry on top.

What t15 school did you get into?
And what’re you trying to do?

Tepper so actually just under T15. 680 gmat probably holding be back. Trying to get a tech focused MBA to work on industry 4.0 consulting (e.g smart factory, IoT, AI, etc)

I guess a much larger applicant pool? Not sure but I’m starting to really think it may not even be worth it applying to stern for me.

If there would be no acceptances for R4 then the round would not exist. I say believe in yourself and go for it! I’m doing the exact same thing!
