Hi,

I am a young Canadian female with minimal work experience looking for a career change. I have a 4 year Bachelors of Science degree (Biochemistry), Masters of Science degree (Biomedical Sciences) and a Graduate Diploma (Scientific Methodology) from a Canadian University. My academic record is strong with GPA 3.9 in the final year my undergraduate degree and 3.93 GPA from my Masters program. I will be writing the GMAT soon. I am looking at applying to programs in Canada (mostly) and the US (although I am not sure of my chances at admissions to an American school due to lack of traditional work experience - I would love to get some feedback on that). Are there any specific schools I should look into?

Thus far, I have been searching through the entrance scholarships and other ones that are specific to schools that I may be applying to. Since an MBA is a great financial commitment, I would like to know about other scholarships that may be available. Some guidance on where I should start with my search would be appreciated. Are there any scholarships available for women in business? or other merit based ones?

Thanks

Hey there,
Well your GPA is a good shooting off point. But we need to see your GMAT to to figure out things. Also to know more about your Work Experience. When you write you have "minimal" WE, what does that mean? How much do you have? And doing what?
