Hi all,
Thanks so much for helping all of us MBA candidates assess our profiles. Much appreciated
The following schools are my ideal list thus far:
Reach Schools:
Cornell, Duke, NYU
Target Schools:
UT Austin, Emory
Safety Schools:
Rice University, Georgetown
My #1 pref is UT Austin, but am curious about my chances at top mba #10-20 schools.
GMAT: 690 (q49 v35)
GPA: 3.0 (didn't take school very seriously GPA on a decline trend)
Undergrad: Emory BBA class of 2008
Work Exp:
- 3 yrs as a consultant to senior consultant at Navigant Consulting (middle market) in the financial/transaction advisory services
- 1.5+ yr at a Dallas based real estate development firm as senior transaction/investment associate (current job)
Reason for MBA:
- Strong desire to gain a more well rounded business knowledge foundation (regret that i didn't in my undergrad. would be helpful in any long term career)
- Since background is in financial/investment valuation, I'm looking to either advance my career/foundation knowledge in real estate investment and maybe manage a fund. Also looking at a potential switch to a corporate strategy planning. Both are great opportunities that I'd like to evaluate while getting MBA.
Other Info:
-No current extracurricular activities since of the long hours @ work + travel
-Asian american (not sure if this helps/hurts/neutral)
