Stacy - Advice Please

by MBA_07 » Fri Sep 15, 2006 12:56 am
Goal is to get into HBS/W/S

GMAT: 690 (83 V and 82 M)

GPA: 4.0 from a top 10 undergrad finance program

While I realize Stanford is highly improbable with this score, what do you think are chances with HBS and Wharton? While my GPA can help a little bit, does such a low score put me out of contention right away?

Can't really take the gmat again as I have already taken it twice. Highly de-motivated at this point - what to do?

Can you provide Stacy some more background on your career progress to date, volunteer experience (if any), etc.?

It's very hard to assess candidates soley based on GPA and GMAT.
