hello,
i just took the gmat recently and scored a 640. i thought i did well, but obviously i did not. i don't want to take the gmat again as it is a big hassle (there are no gmat testing centers in the country i currently live in).
Can someone please help evaluate my profile for a top 10 bschool and give some advice?
Gender: F
Age:25
GPA: 3.9 in finance, at great undergraduate US bschool - graduated at age of 20
Ethnicity: Other Asian - definitely a minority, doesn't show up in the lists (does this matter?)
WE: 4.5 years
-Over 1 year at a top-tier investment bank, over 1 year boutique bank, a ton of international experience, tons of responsibility as deal teams were small, ranked at the top of the class, always youngest at the firms
-2 years in a third-world country as the head/coordinator of a business school (promoted to this after 4 months, probably youngest ever to hold this position) - really unique experience, taught finance-related classes, revamped the curriculum, social entrepreneurship projects - have accomplished a lot for the college
-Part-time external financial consultant (financial modeling work) for international energy company in asia backed by huge PE firm
EC: i never joined any clubs in my two years at university (as i thought they were dumb), but i worked 20 hours per week - tutoring, various finance jobs, teaching business in remote town internationally after graduating (before working at ibank).
Obviously after bschool i would like to focus on combining my finance/business skills within the educational sector. my profile is unique, but my gmat looks funny in the mix - i don't know what happened, really. suggestions?
