[ b]Reflection**
Strengths: I have a very strong passion for sports, and that some of my business
Weaknesses: being and Indian girl, and my stats were really weak. A lot of business schools required a math, and I didn’t always send it in!
Why you think you were accepted/deferred/rejected: my story!
Where else you are applying or have already applied: Got in to: Fordham, USC Marshall, UC Riverside, University of Arizona, UConn
General Comments/Advice/Hindsight: I was surprised that I got waitlisted and not rejected because of my low scores. It shows that schools actually emphasize the “holistic review.” I declined to be part of the waitlist though as I was so happy I got into USC. Good luck with everyone else on the waitlist who’s anxious about getting in!
