Applying for Ivey MBA 2024 (Class of 2025) : Ivey (Western)

Hi everyone,

I had a few questions regarding Ivey MBA application (class of 2025). I will be applying in the round 1. I just wanted to know the below

1. I will be claiming exemption from GMAT as I cleared CFA level III. Will the decision be in my favour or do they prefer candidates with GMAT? I'm just worried that I wont be shortlisted given I havent given GMAT and my profile wont be competitive.

2. I'm an Indian working in Canada on a PR. I work with a Big 4 consulting firm in the tax consulting profile. I'm a CA and CFA from India. Is my profile good enough to get shortlisted for Ivey Business School and Rotman (I'll be applying for Rotman as well in round 3)?

Got an admit from Ivey for MBA'25 batch.

Feel free to reach out for any questions with application/interview. Happy to help!

Just got accepted into Ivey!!

Hi Rohan

1. Once you get the exemption, you should be fine
2. The profile seems good. Focus on building a strong application and clearly highlighting your goals

Hi everyone, I have a query regarding freelance work. Basically, I am doing freelance work for a Europe-based client since September 2021. The arrangement is like that of an Independent Consultant. However, I am doing this along-with my full-time job at a leading MNC, which (as per the contract) does not allow me to pick anything additional.

In this regard, wanted to get your perspective on whether I should include this experience (maybe just in a single line) in my CV or not? It might act as negative as it may sound unethical and raise question on my integrity. It might sound positive as well, as this adds to my entrepreneurial skill and also shows my hard-working. Any advice?
