i'd love your opinions on:
1) my competitiveness as an applicant to the Part time Haas, Booth, and Kellogg programs;
2) how important a stronger GMAT score will be for my chances in the above 3 programs
i graduated from nyu in 2005 with a 3.7 gpa, magna cum laude. i have 8 years of work experience at the leading global ad agencies (4 yrs in nyc at ogilvy & mather and mccann erickson; 4 years in honolulu at ddb worldwide). i am half japanese, half american -- dual citizen and bilingual (born/raised in tokyo). i will have 2 strong recommendations and solid extracurrics (founding partner and cmo of online tech start up; board of directors of american marketing association; director of high school alma mater; marathon coach/2:50 marathoner).
my strongest gmat score is 640/q42/v35; i've taken it twice. short term goal after mba is brand management position at leading CPG company. long term - lead japanese multinational.
please help me determine my chance as is, as well as with a stronger gmat score. i REALLY like the haas PT program and that would be my top choice, and then kellogg, and lastly booth.
i'm also open to taking the math for management online course to beef up my lack of quant/poor quant percentile in the gmat, but trying to determine where to place my efforts: gmat retest, quant class, essays, etc. would REALLY APPRECIATE your advice. thank you so much!!
