Well, it's a bit of a long shot - with a lower than average GMAT from a below-50 school. But you can take your shot anyways!

Thanks Jon. Do you have any suggestions with regard to what schools I should be targeting? I intend to transition into IB post-mba.

Thanks again

Hey Drew,

If you're trying to get onto Wall Street, you don't HAVE to be on Wall Street to do so. It helps - of course - but it isn't a requirement. Any top 20 program will give you a fighting chance and some are better than others. For example, Emory has a really strong network up the East Coast. Darden places a lot of people in IB as well. I'd say look in the 10 - 20 range for programs more aligned to your profile.

To give you an example, here's a guy who got into Banking from McCombs - [BSchool Perspectives: Chris @ McCombs]

Good luck!
