Hi ama2rm,

From the information you have given it sounds like you could be competitive for the top 10. You have some very interesting material.

When you say you haven't been involved recently, do you mean in extracurricular activities? It sounds like you have done a lot, how many years has it been since you stopped being involved?

Good luck!

Amy

Hi Amy,


That was quick! Thank you!

After my baby came along, the support group and some grassroot level work for a child organization was all I had time for outside of work.
I would say that I have not done as much in the last three years.

My GPA also concerns me.

What is your suggestion for my application? What are your suggestions for my schools?

Thanks Amy!!

Hi ama2rm,

I understand your concern about your undergrad GPA, but taking your entire academic profile into consideration it looks like your grad GPA was quite a bit higher and that your GMAT is also quite strong. It might be a better use of your time to start getting more involved in extracurriculars where you can show leadership again.

I think your school choice looks feasible for you in terms of competitiveness. You have a nice range of schools. Every business school should give you leadership and decision making skills, the question is whether the school has the right programs and coursework for your long term and short term goals. You didn't mention what your goals are, but I think application decisions should be largely based on where you want to end up. As well as practical concerns about which city you want to live in, whether the class size is comfortable for you, reputation of school, etc.

Good luck!

Amy
