My chances with Low GPA, strong work experience, etc.

by TheGuest » Thu Dec 23, 2010 8:48 am
Hi,

1. I have a low GPA - 2.7 from State University in California
2. 5 years of strong working experience in IT (world leading enterprise application corporation)
3. English is not my first language
4. Almost 2 years in foreign top finance university (did not graduate because I moved to the US)
5. GMAT - have not taken it

What are my chances to get into a good part time MBA program? What do you think? I know a lot depends on GMAT score.

I appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.

You haven't really given us much for us to go on. So my advice is equally as superficial...just apply and see what you can get.

Hi TheGuest,

Given the information you provided, it is difficult to recommend part-time programs. I do recommend you spend time studying for the GMAT test, as your score will play a role in your candidacy.

I hope this was of help.

Best,

Conrad and the Stacy Blackman Team
