Hi,
I'm a 27 year old male with 6 years of work experience. I graduated from a top 3 undergrad business program with a 3.3 gpa and scored a 680 (41Q/41V).
My work experience is split between an equity trader at a notable and hedge fund and the president of a family business (healthcare distribution company with 20 employees). I made the transition because I was tired of extracting value and wanted to create a business from the ground up. Sales are up each year since I started, whereas they were declining just before I joined. I have a decent story for why I want an MBA, but I won't get into that now for the sake of brevity.
Extracurriculars: underprivileged student tutor & treasurer for a non-profit
Any advise thoughts - my target school is Columbia or U Chicago, but I'm below the medians/means by a decent clip. Could my work experience make up for it? Should I retake the GMAT, or will it make much of a difference? Who knows...
Thanks so much for your time.
