Ask an MBA Admissions Consultant

Hi,

I'd love some feedback as to my "chances"

Female, 24 years old

I graduated 3 years ago from UCSD in CA with 3.4 GPA and various honors with a BA in communications
Lots and lots of extracurriculars and community service during college and also after.

I'm scheduled to take the GMAT later this month, aiming at a score of 700

3 years of work experience in a large national non profit as an area supervisor, and also as a director of operations (right hand of owner) in a small business in the construction field - very successful. Management experience etc..

Been involved with various community service, for example organized with friends a humanitarian relief effort sending 8 tons of medical supplies to the Dominican Republic in 2004.

I was born in Russia, grew up in Israel and did my undergrad in the US. Speak languages, very diverse background.

I understand way to go is pick 5 schools to apply to. One which is in the very top, one which will take me for sure, and 3 more in between.

I'm looking right now at Stanford, Kellogg, UCSD Rady (security school)
What do you think of my chances of getting into the top level schools like stanford and kellogg?

I'm focusing on California, Chicago and maybe also the east coast for schools. I'm not finance oriented, interested specifically in marketing, and entrepreneurship programs. What other programs are exceptional in these areas? I'm not sure where to start looking..

Thanks in advance for your help!

Smiles,
Bella
