Beat The GMAT a GMAT & MBA community

Hi RJenner and thanks for your post!

Your profile looks strong in many ways. Your GMAT is extremely strong, and your extra-curricular and entrepreneurial experience is great. I don't think that you should let your GPA concern you in terms of applying to B School programs. However, I would want to know more about your long and short term goals, in terms of your school choice, and also suggest that you expand your list a bit more. Keep in mind that beyond prestige, it is important to consider the fit of the program in terms of your industry of interest, your learning style, as well as the campus culture and location.
Please feel free to contact us at info@clearadmit.com for a more detailed, personal assessment of your profile!
Best,

Deena
