David,
I am applying R1 to schools like Sloan, HBS and Stanford and some other top 10 schools in R2. My details are as follows:
– Major: Biology and Economics
– GPA: 3.4 from a top-tier school in the US
– GMAT: 670 V (81%) Q (79%) AWA 6.0
– Work Experience: 3+ years in consulting – currently at Booz Allen
– Recommendations: Solid
– Additional: Lots of extracurriculars, increased focus on third world development, betterment of women’s social status. I am from a third world country myself but am a permanent resident of the US.
I wanted to get a sense of what you feel chances are like – I realize that the GMAT score is on the lower end but the reason I didnt retake it was mainly because both verbal and quant. were reasonably balanced with a good AWA and because I didnt think I would go up by 30+ points and I wanted to dedicate that time to creating a good story and package.
Any insight at all would be much appreciated!
