Hi,

Thanks for your post. You certainly have a solid profile with a good GMAT score and career trajectory. Your greatest challenge will be to stand out in the applicant pool. I suggest you look for schools that will not only help you achieve your post MBA goals, but are also a good "fit" with your personal interest. I encourage you to consider location (big city vs. small town) and class size as you look for schools. The better suited a school is for your interest (both academic and personal), the easier it will be for you to connect with the school in your essays and interviews - thus increasing your chances of success.

Start by looking at top 15-20 programs in the US and then use the "fit" criteria listed above to help you narrow down your list.

Best of luck,

Stacey
