Hi,
I trust that you are well.
Please could you perhaps give some advice on my evaluation.
I am planning to apply to the top 5 schools.
HBS is my number 1 choice.
Background
Born and raised in the UK.
BA in History from University College London (GPA:3.0)
Journalist for the The Times Group of Newspapers (1 year)
Derivatives analyst (UBS) - 3 years.
I have 6-7 year track record of strong extra-curricular activities, volunteering with several organisations (mentoring,education etc).
I am looking for a career change however and want to move into the non-profit sector with a long term target to set up a charitable foundation.
I am yet to take a GMAT but I'm assuming with my low GPA I would possibly need a 700+?
I know that Harvard may seem a long shot but I think
I can do it. I just wandered what your thoughts were and if you think my optimism is misguided!
Many Thanks for your time.
Regards,
Steve

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."
"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."
"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
