Dear Holly,

You definitely do not need to retake the GMAT--congratulations on a great score! I do not think you need to specifically address your quant skills in your application. However, if you would like to refresh your knowledge and prepare for business school, I would suggest taking a finite math, college algebra and/or a calculus class through a local university/community college. Much of the material in your finance courses will assume you are "up to speed" on your algebra and calculus.

Your overall profile is quite competitive. Your age is not an issue, but you should know that you will be older than the majority of the students in a full-time program. Generally speaking, the middle 50% fall between 25-29 for most full-time programs. That is not to say your age is a negative, but you should be prepared to work with other students with less experience than you have.

Most applications will ask you to identify your extracurriculars in college and then since college. So, you can offer up law school in whichever place you desire. If you do not have much post-college, then I would put the law school activities in the post-college section. As a litigator, it is understandable you would not have much time for outside interests.

My final "two cents": be sure to explicitly convey why you want your MBA and your overall career plan. The first question in the minds of the admissions committee will be why you want to go to business school after getting a JD and working as a litigator. As long as you can present a rationale for your decision and it all makes sense for your career plan, then you will be fine.

Best of luck,
Lisa
