Hello,

There are a number of MBA programs in Canada that I believe you could gain admissions for with your current profile; however, if you wish to attend a top Canadian program, I'd suggest retaking the GMAT.

Best,
Mili

I had selected the following schools:
1, McMaster University - DeGroote School of Business
2. University of Alberta - Alberta School of Business
3. University of British Columbia - Sauder School of Business

Will I be accepted in the above schools with my current profile.
Do suggest me of schools that would accept me with my current profile.

Also kindly let me know which are the schools that you are referring to by Top Business Schools.

I am thinking of applying with my current profile for the following 2 reasons:
1. I am married and have a time constraint to apply for next year
2. Also there is limited time for me to apply for Sep 2013 admissions.

Awaiting your reply.

Hello,

Unfortunately I cannot say with certainty whether you will gain admissions (this decision always lies with the admissions committees and there are never any guarantees!). I believe you are below the average GMAT score for DeGroote and Sauder, at just at the average for Alberta. I don't see anything else in your profile that makes you a stand out applicant, so it's pretty difficult to say whether you'd be admitted or not. I think these are good target programs, though!

Good luck,
Mili
