I have a 700 on the GMAT, however there is a small problem. I am currently in the US and was enrolled in an MBA program. However due to medical reasons had to withdraw. I never disclosed this to the b-school I was in and they just think that I withdrew.

Now however I feel great and would like to be able to apply to B-schools again. How would my decision to drop out of one B-School and enroll in another one look to the admissions committee?

I would not like to disclose to any other business schools why I withdrew as I feel I may judged by them regarding my health

Please be as candid as possible.

Thank you for your inquiry. While this is a long shot, you may want to contact your prior MBA program, explain your actions and attempt to get some sort of note in your transcript stating that you withdrew for medical reasons. I think that a school would be far more concerned about a candidate who withdrew without explaining his actions, than they would be about a candidate who has medical problems that are now in the past. Your medicine will just not be an issue, but, to be brutally honest, your maturity might be if the Admissions Committee thinks that you just left your last program "out of the blue."
