Going to that your GPA and your GMAT are both quite below avg for m7. So I would try taking the gmat again at least. Also can full evaluate how's your ecs
Bit of perspective - also a Canadian female! 690 GMAT, 3.27 GPA (engineering), top Canadian school. Also I came from ACN.
I got into Booth, Duke, Tuck, and NYU. I think taking the GMAT again would be wise but also shoot your shot!! If I had listened to all the posts I never would have tried.
Feel free to DM! As for secret sauce, I had some scholarships under my belt, strong EC’s, and a solid story!
I think you have a shot with these stats at M7, your story and EC need to be perfect though.
Honestly this would be a stretch, even for T15. I would really focus on retaking the GMAT. Big4 in Canada also carries a lower weight. ECs or exceptional work contributions could make a difference though.
Low. Unless you have phenomenal ECs.
Appreciate the feedback
Honestly, these are below average stats even for T15, let alone M7.
Recommend boosting the GMAT to around a 700 at least or trying the GRE if that’s a better fit for your strengths.
Yea I would focus on improving your gmat to 730+ if you want a realistic shot at M7. 690+ for 15-10
As for everyone, low hard stats are harder to overcome but not impossible if your story and ECs are solid
But on the other hand, it seems like you have the ability to score higher so it could be worth exploring that unless you have a lot of conviction on your story being differentiated from the rest of the pack
That being said, if you have the energy / drive to do the gmat or gre again… do it. Otherwise, it won’t hurt to apply with low expectations and see what happens (assuming you can afford the fees)
Gotta get that gmat up
