Hi,

i would really appreciate it if you could evaluate me.

[u]UG[/u]- Univ.of Michigan(Ann Arbor)
[u]GPA[/u]-3.5
[u]Majors[/u]-Economics, Political Science
[u]Minor[/u]- French
[u]Work Experience[/u]
-2 months of internships
-study abroad program; 1year in France
-started working after graduation(last Dec.) at a law firm in Korea
[u]Citizenship[/u]
-non U.S.citizen

i haven't taken the GMAT yet, but i'm aiming at 700 (crossing my fingers..)

i know i don't have much of a work experience and my current job is not really related to MBA kinda area...so i'm a bit discouraged here.

my target schools;
1.Harvard, Stanford, Wharton
2.Michigan, Columbia, Yale
3. UCLA, Georgetown

i catagorized my dream schools into 3 groups(1.hoping in vain, 2.really want, and 3.will be happy to go)

Could you please evaluate my chances?

other than estimate of chances,
(1)do you think i'd better work for another year or so to enhance my chances to get in??
(2)i know that many schools don't require minimum of 3 years of work experience anymore. but does that really mean that someone like me who doesn't have work experience won't be facing any disadvantage??
(3)do i have any chance to get into those schools listed above? if not, what could i do to enhance my chances?? what would be the minimum GMAT score that would put me in a good stand?

Thank you so much for your time and consideration. I really appreciate it.
Thanks!!

Hi sunshine,

How long have you worked at the law firm? What type of work do you do? It sounds like you might have been thinking about going to law school?

The key aspect of work experience is whether you have demonstrated career progression. If you worked for 2 years, but were promoted early and demonstrated significant leadership experience that may be better than working for 5 years without progression or leadership opportunities.

I would be most concerned about your demonstrated leadership ability and teamwork. Have you managed others? Do you have experience in a variety of teams? What about outside of work?

It may be helpful to work for another year, but only if another year will add to your career progression.

I really can't comment on whether you have a chance at the schools you listed. A GMAT above the mean of your target schools certainly can help, but factors like career progression, leadership experience, personal qualities and extracurriculars play a big part as well.

Good luck!
