Hey,

is there a reason why NOW is the right time for you to get the MBA, or would more work experience be doubly beneficial? cheers, alex

Your GMAT score is great and will probably make you competitive for most schools in the top 20 but a strong GMAT score alone will not get you into a top business school. The process is really more holistic then candidates really know so work experience, GPA, extra-curriculars all play a role. Not to mention how well aligned your personal and professional development goals are with the program strengths.

Hope this helps!
