Dear Stacy Blackman Consulting,

Hello! If you can, please advise me on the strength of my MBA application, detailed below:

1. undergrad gpa (B.A. History): 3.1 (Cumulative) 3.4 (Major). (I did score almost all 4.0's my last year of college, you can see that there is a healthy upward incline in my grade performance)
2. Studied abroad one year in Scotland- for history. I thought this would at least make a unique point
3. Target school: UCLA
3. GMAT score: Have not taken yet, but have been scoring consistently around 700
4. Extra Curricular: help start a non-profit, several years of volunteer teaching in low-income areas, church volunteering.
