Hi,
Having gone to Booth and been accepted into both Kellogg and Booth I'd be happy to shed some light on the students who get admitted at these schools. Overall I think they have stronger GPAs and GMAT scores. Your work experience seems encouraging, especially your recent promotion and new job. Is your job in Chicago? How are you planning to do the course part time? Do you want to do part time over full time?

Ace your GMAT this time, Kellogg and Booth are good B-Schools to target. Your work ex is good but overall profile parameters matter and if your MBA Application stands out among others you definitely get selected. You can fill in your profile details and evaluate your chances for Kellogg or Booth. https://www.genedmba.com/evaluate-your-c ... b-schools/ Hope it helps !

Hi brjenkins4,
The below mentioned part time programs are one of the best out there and definitely the requirements are high. Your profile sounds good but you haven't mentioned your aspirations for doing an MBA which is very important as the school would like to know, after doing well for yourself what are you looking for out of an MBA.
Let us know if you would have any further queries.
