UNC average is 706. Being an Indian Male I recommend 20-30 more points on top of the average. This is just me based on. On scientific numbers. You can check decision tracker

Hey everyone! My name is Riquetta Brown. I’m about to get my Master’s Degree in Accounting at the UNC Chapel Hill. I have a question. I’m really nervous about the graduate interview and I wanted to know what questions the interviewer asked you all? I want to be prepared for the interview so I can get accepted at the UNC Chapel Hill. Thank you.

Hi everyone, I’m an Indian woman applying in round 1 for the full-time MBA program.

I have 3 YOE in ad-tech (media.net) as a Marketing and Strategy Associate. My role involves forming advertising strategy for our web publishers via different ad-tech implementations to grow their accounts. The role directly contributes to our business revenue.

This year I was promoted to Senior Associate, the equivalent of a Team Lead, coordinating a team of four (no direct reports)

I did my BA in Psychology from St. Xavier’s College in Mumbai with a GPA of 3.76/4. Held several leadership positions in college tests and have 3-4 meaningful volunteer experiences (spanning college years and after)

My GRE score is 312 (V153, Q159).

Post MBA career goals are product management or management consulting.

What are my chances of getting admitted to Kenan-Flagler?

Hello chandana1995,

Official scores need to be reported at the time of application for all business schools. Your application will only be considered complete if you have done the same.

All the best!

Hello AkshadaS,

Thanks for writing in.

Good to see a differentiated academic background as well as a promotion + indirect leadership experience fairly early on in your career. These will together prove to add immense value to your overall application.

That said, the GRE is a cause of concern. Your score is way under the class average and will weaken your case; if you are targeting the US top ~25 schools, we suggest that you retake the GRE and then apply.

Should you wish to discuss your prospects in greater detail, please feel free to reach out to us for a profile evaluation session. We will be happy to help.

All the best!

Hello Mdislam,

Thanks for writing in.

It is always going to be tough to quantify the chances with a GMAT waiver; ideally, we are of the opinion that your chances will always be high with a GMAT score unless you have a low score that otherwise does not do justice to your academic and professional credentials.

When you do not submit a test score, the rest of your profile becomes the sole basis for evaluation; hence, your chances of making it in will purely depend on how unique your candidature is.

All the best!
