I am looking to apply to a few of the top 10 MBA schools in the U.S., but I have no post-undergrad work experience.
How will this effect my chances of being accepted?
I will give you some background. I am a mature student (30 yrs. old) and I did have sales and purchasing background before going to university.
I will graduate in May 2005. I am planning to take my GMAT this summer and I my goal is to score above 700. My GPA is just shy of 4.0 and I hope to improve upon that.
I am of aboriginal decent and I am the aboriginal student advisor fo my university, as well I coach youth football in the area. I volounteer at the local food bank during the holidays and I will soon be a participant in the commerce society.
Will all of the above make me a strongcandidate or is the work experience (lack there of) going to be too much of a factor to overcome?
The schools I am specifically looking at are Harvard, Columbia, Stanford, Duke, and Kellogg.
