Dear zephir21,

Based on the limited information provided, I think you have the foundation for a competitive application to your target schools. However, you are targeting some of the most competitive/selective business schools. As such, your essays, recommendations, and interviews are critical to the ultimate decision. I think you have some interesting professional experience that should distinguish you. You will need to convey your successful leadership and teamwork experiences in your essays. Likewise, it is imperative for you to present a solid rationale for getting your MBA in relation to your past experiences and future career goals. You might also think about getting involved with a community group or something outside the office over the next few months. Finally, you might want to add 1-2 safety schools to your list. While you have a good shot at one of the top programs, it is always good to have a backup plan.

Best of luck,
Lisa

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
