Hi,
I would like to know what are the chances of admission into a top 20 MBA program (Kellog, Booth, Columbia, Tuck, Yale, Fuqua, LBS, INSEAD etc) if my work experience consists only of being in the family business since graduation from college. This family business has an annual turnover of $60m, and consists of about 150 employees. It operates mainly in the physical trading of commodities, but has subsidiaries in clean technology, construction and sustainable engineering.
I have worked for about 3 years in a strategy and business development role, possessing responsibilities spanning from the analysis and execution of acquisition targets, to planning the long term corporate strategy of the businesses and assisting in securing pipeline projects and deals. My long term goal would be to transition into a management role, succeeding my father by heading the entire business, while looking to further innovate our patented technologies and expand operations onto a global scale.
Assuming a GMAT score of 700, and an undergrad degree from a top Australian university with a grade average of 76/100 (equivalent to the UK's Upper 2nd Class Honors, my university doesn't do GPAs), what is the likelihood of admission?
