North American with low GPA - NA & EAME Work Experience

Hello ,

So here's my story. I graduated from an engineering university in Canada with a 2.2/4 GPA ( I have to admit , it's not a pleasant conversation every time I bring it up ) . Now this was back in 2005 when I graduated.

Since then , I moved into a sales role at a Fortune 500 Industrial manufacturer and later at a Fortune 50 Industrial manufacturer where I have risen through the marketing ranks fairly quickly in a span of 4 years. First within Canada and then an opportunity to expose myself to African and Middle-Eastern markets where I was relocated to Dubai on an international assignment. I am currently in that role and work closely with partners in Europe and throughout AME .

Besides the achievements at work , I have been an active part of Toastmasters , Startup-Grind in Dubai , and had other volunteer opportunities at United Way and used to mentor new immigrants to Canada through an organization.

If I were to score a 700+ on my GMAT , what are my chances at a Top 5 University such as Harvard , Stanford etc ? I am hoping for an honest opinion...Do I stand a chance?

Hi there,

Thanks for posting. Well, you've got some solid work experience and great international experience, and some volunteering on your resume.... but that said, with that GPA and the point you are at in your career, I can't see aiming for a top 10 school. With a stand-out GMAT and some awesome explanations of WHY you want the degree and why at this point in your career, maybe you could aim for schools roughly 15-30 or so.

Just keeping it real! Good luck to you.
