Are you someone with less-than-stellar performer in term of GPA?

I guess you would’ve been trying hard to land those top MBA programs. Or, are you even giving up?

No worries, because I found a knol that might help you to get into a top MBA Program from top university with a low GPA.

William Hohman, the knol writer, explained in his knol that there are 4 secrets to simply do just that. Here are the excerpts:

1. Ace the GMAT – An above-average GMAT score will help make up for a low GPA on your application – especially on the quantitative section.
2. Build an Alternate Transcript – An alternative transcript is a series of classes (usually just 3 or 4) that you choose to take of your own accord.
3. Highlight Relevant Quantitative Work – On-the-job quantitative experience can be an important part of your GPA mitigation strategy, as long as you make the most of it.
4. Supplemental Essay – It may also help your case if you attach a brief, optional essay to your application, addressing why your GPA is not higher. Don’t be a whiner, though.

There you go – for more details, please visit the knol.
