Hey all,
Any advice, notes or suggestions would be really appreciated.
I am currently in my second year of teaching 8th grade Science in Jacksonville, FL. I teach at an inner-city school, and I am also a member of Teach For America. This year, I am the Science department head- leading and serving a group of 6 fellow teachers in this department. In addition to department chair, I am also the school's head soccer coach (boys) for the second year. I have also founded a peer mentoring group that enlists selected 8th graders to mentor 7th and 6th graders who lack good leadership. Lastly, in between my first and second year of teaching, I spent my summer working as a summer associate on a highly successful wealth management team for Barclays Wealth.
I want to attend a business school that will help me reach my goal of consulting in the nonprofit sector. Ideally, I would like to work for one of the big three consulting firms. I have taken the GMAT and scored a 680 with a 90 percentile verbal and a 54 percentile quant (mistimed my quant session and had to guess on 6 of last 7 questions). I am currently taking a prep class through Manhattan Prep and fully expect my score to increase to the 710-720 range. Please let me know if I have left off any other pertinent information. Thank you very much for your help.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."
"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."
"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
