Dear Ineedmba,

Based on your post, I think your profile is competitive for your target schools and that your school list is an appropriate mix of reach and reasonable options. You have many assets in your profile, like a high GMAT, good academic record, and quality work experience. In addition to that, you will need to make a compelling case for admission and distinguish yourself from similar applicants. Perhaps with your community work or entrepreneurial pursuit?

Best of luck,
Lisa
