Quick Profile Evaluation

Hey everyone. I'm in the process of applying to business school. The programs I'm applying to are (in no particular order of importance) Georgetown, Dartmouth, Duke, Emory, and University of Florida.

I am a hispanic male, and I went to the University of Florida for undergrad, majoring in Finance (3.26 gpa). I work at a small bank, concentrated mostly in real estate. Though I haven't been workign too long (2.5 years), I think the quality of my experience has been good, and I'm pretty sure I can express that in my essays.

I scored a 750 on my GMAT and am mostly applying in the first round to the schools mentioned above.

What do you guys think my chances are at the programs I will be applying to? Please, be brutally honest.

Thanks to all for your time.

Your chances should actually be pretty good. Be sure you can clearly articulate your short and long-term goals and that the individuals writing your LORs can be very specific when writing about your achievements. You have the right idea about communicating the quality of your work exp via essays (and also interviews). Finally, don't forget to mention any extracurriculars and/or hobbies to show that you are a well-rounded candidate.
