Reapplying to the same MSF program?

How would the adcom view an applicant that is reapplying to the same MSF program or to the same MSF program with a different, less competitive track? I scored 78/100 on their application process last time and was 2 points away from gaining admission. Nothing of relevance as far as work experience goes has changed but I added a recent administrative position to it. I know my weaknesses and strengths so I'm hoping for a less competitive field during this application period or I can just apply for the different track.

Any thoughts?

No one here has enough inputs to answer your question, pal. If you're that passionate about the program, I'd say go for it, your only downside is some of your time and your admission fee. An admin position doesn't help much for an MSF application, IMHO. Try to boost your GMAT, take math courses at some local colleges.. so you can bridge that 2 points gap. Good luck pal. By the way, how do you know about your application score ?

Nobody wants to work for it anymore. There's no honor in taking the after school job at Mickey D's. Honor's in the dollar, kid.
 

I've been here long enough to know that there are better resources out there to help me with my question but I thought maybe someone was in a similar situation in the past. Either way, this particular school provides feedback on the final application status so I that's how I found out.

Just curious...I'm applying to MSF's soon and I feel that I'm a well-rounded candidate (think I am) aside from the points criteria that they shared with you do you know specifically what you got dinged on?
