Cool! When did you apply then? From your past posts, seems you applied lots of schools all over the world

I'm just curious, because I suppose Ivey run the admission process by batches.

I applied last yr but had to ask them to discontinue my app due to personal reasons. I asked them to reconsider my app for this yr( sometime around June) and they scheduled my interviews around July end...

not on my end....deadline is oct 4....which is a sunday...does that mean they work sat/sun as well?
528

They definitely seem to be working on a Sunday. I had submitted my resume for an initial assessment and I got a feedback just an hour ago.

I am planning to apply for Ivey by the 5th Oct. deadline and I had mainly opted for the resume assessment since its required if you want to take part in a class visit and avail the Travel Award.

The feedback tells me that I am not a fit for the full-time MBA but may be a fit for the Executive MBA. Needless to say, I am disappointed. But I do believe that the assessment is probably done at a very broad level and my age (33) would be the main factor for them to point me to the EMBA.
(BTW, I don't mention my age in my CV, but it can be derived at from the no. of years of work experience and the education history)

Did anybody else in this forum get such a feedback for their resume assessment? Would it still make sense to go ahead and submit my application?

Thanks!

GBH, What other b schools u targetting? thr r many whr ur age and experience will be an asset to peer learning.....
lemme know if u need ne help...

530

Thanks SDK2010. Any tips that you can provide would be welcome!
I also plan to apply for Oxford and Cambridge on this side of the world. But having lived in Europe for the last 8 years (the first 25 in India), Ivey is at the top of my list since it will let me explore and experience N.America in a one-year MBA format.

531

GBH u should apply to IMD, where majority of the class would be your age..

I would also be 32 by the time i join school,but luckily Ivey said, i have an excellent fitment..

may be because i would only have 7 yrs work ex by then ( I have done my masters after B.Tech)

You can apply to Queens which is also 1 yr program...

I think we guys are in waitlist... as first deadline is on 5th Oct.. so they might be looking for incoming applications and decision will be made on the new pool of application.....what you think???

I think you could be correct...some people already got Dings, so if they dinged us or thought we are not good for the program, they would have told us already so we can get started on other applications. So we are either waitlisted or they are still deciding if they should accept us..either way, if we dont get a ding, we still have a shot...

I just hope I hear something soon b/c waiting is the hardest part....

GL with your interview tomorrow mansi.malik. All the best.

I do not know what the anti-resume question refers to...I'm sure someone else on here can answer that for you.

Hey Guyz,

Usually how long does it take to get the Canadian Student Visa?

Due to some issues, I can apply to Ivey only by Round 2 and decision date is Jan 5th and its mentioned tat classes start frm Mar 15th.

Will it be too tight to get Visa under 2 months?

Thanks!

Try the resume assessment first.
