Dear msunny,

You have a competitive foundation for an application to your target schools. What determines the decision, however, is how well you put the overall application together. So, be sure to write a set of thorough, compelling essays showing a multi-faceted view of who you are and what you have to offer these schools. Likewise, you will need great recommendations and a strong interview. Finally, you have four of the most selective schools in the world on your list. You might consider having a safety school in the mix as a back up plan. It is possible you will be at one of the four, but there are no guarantees in MBA admissions.

Best of luck,
Lisa
