Hey everyone,
I just submitted by applications for the Early Round at Tuck, Darden, and McCombs. Below is some of my history.
Male
Filipino
25 years old
Undergrad: Rice, GPA 3.4 Cum Laude
GMAT 1: 650 (46 Q, 34V)
GMAT 2: 660 (39 Q, 41V)
Career: Currently in supply chain at a major sports goods company (i.e. Addidas, Puma, New Balance).
Extracurriculars: Certified Personal Fitness Trainer by ACE (American Council on Exercise). Volunteered to train people in working out and athletics.
I'm hoping to get into brand management at another athletics firm after graduation. I'm already in the right industry that I want, just in the wrong function.
I was just wondering how I would look to admissions committees at top 15 MBA programs. Note that my individual GMATs are a little low for these schools but one GMAT has a decent quant score or 46 (79%) and the other GMAT has a decent verbal score of 41 (92%). I also aced Calculus, Statistics, and Econ in college. My extracurriculars in fitness also tie in with my professional work.
Do I have a shot at places like Darden, Tuck, McCombs, and other programs? I figure I'm different from the hordes of Asians coming from banking, consulting, and IT. Thank for your help!
