  1. Hey,I recently became interested in pursuing a masters at NHH but I have some questions regarding the requirements and also if I have a suitable profile.First of all, they state the following:90 ECTS must be within economics and business administration. This may include methodological subjects like statistics or mathematics, but not exclusively. 30 ECTS must be within Business administration (e.g. finance, accounting, strategy, marketing, statistics, mathematics, etc.). Economics courses such as micro- or macroeconomics may not count toward the business administration requirement. I'm in my third year of a UK bachelor in management, which is made up of modules almost entirely in the area of business administration. I have one module which is a Microeconomics/decision-making joint module. So I am uncertain whether my degree meets the requirements in the first place. I have not yet received a reply from NHH.The second question is how competitive some of the majors are, e.g. Strategy and management and international business in relation to my profile:Grade: UK high 2.1 expected at top 6 University.GRE: Quant 153 ( I know horrible) but it meets the minimum. (what can we assume about the GRE ranges for applicants)?Internships: Short experience in BB bank in my first year, summer internship at major tech firm (think Facebook, Google, Amazon)Learning a 4th language.I am scandinavian if this matters. Any thoughts?
  2. Thanks for the awsome help guys, things are clearing up a bit now. Actually I prefer to be on the safe side on the quant, So I might do my first test after 4-5 months or so. But it looks like its all up to how you plan your days etc. The magoosh 6 month plan will be around 2 hours on weekdays and perhaps the double on weekends. I just have to start working really hard for this period.
  3. Hm ok, well this changes things for me doesnt it? Since I wanted 6 month of study before my first test, however this wont be possible if i need 2 months before the deadline. Then I will have less then 6 months to study. The early deadline for the programme is 15 November, and I have an important term now between Jan - March then I have easter break and then exams in May - early June. Does this mean I have to start the study plan earlier i.e quite soon already? I wonder if I can handle it during undergrad studies? Sorry I just dont really know how to plan it can you guys help me :)? EDIT: thanks for the help btw
  4. Thanks for the answer! Is it recommended to do the official test just before one has to apply for the program i.e after 6 months or should one do an official test like after 3-4 months and then one again after 2-3 months? How will schools look upon this?
  5. Hi, So, I will start my GRE journey in perhaps a month and will take the test in September/October 2016. I will appy for a programme that more or less only look at the quant score, and the avarage was 160 this year. To be honest, I am not good at math, so therefore I will try putting in around 6 months of study focused on this area. I have 2 questions: 1. Which one of these providers would you recommend for the main source of learning: Greenlight test prep guide or Magoosh 6 month beginner math plan? Complimented with books suggested by these providers. 2. Is my aim score of 160 quant a realistic aim for 6 months - with solid study and motivation? Even for a guy whos bad at math since like forever. Im really interested to know this. I really appreciate any help with this, I am very keen on getting that quant score for the masters programme! Thank you
