Well, it's a bit of a long shot - with a lower than average GMAT from a below-50 school. But you can take your shot anyways!

Thanks Jon. Do you have any suggestions with regard to what schools I should be targeting? I intend to transition into IB post-mba.

Thanks again

Hey Drew,

If you're trying to get onto Wall Street, you don't HAVE to be on Wall Street to do so. It helps - of course - but it isn't a requirement. Any top 20 program will give you a fighting chance and some are better than others. For example, Emory has a really strong network up the East Coast. Darden places a lot of people in IB as well. I'd say look in the 10 - 20 range for programs more aligned to your profile.

To give you an example, here's a guy who got into Banking from McCombs - [BSchool Perspectives: Chris @ McCombs]

Good luck!

"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."
