Hello stacey,

I want to apply for the HBS 2+2 and a couple of other programmes. I would be grateful if you could possibly evaluate my profile from details below and give your tips/review, etc. on it.

....

Regards,

RK

Dear RK,

You are building a competitive foundation for your future applications and I commend you for thinking this far in advance. It is hard to comment on your chances at any school at this point without a GMAT score and being in the middle of your undergraduate studies. It is great to see that you are establishing a strong work ethic and have pursued your interests. You do not have "excessive experience" by any stretch. These are all important experiences and will be evaluated; however, the years of work experience for reporting purposes by business schools is defined as full-time, professional experience after completion of a bachelor's degree. The fact that you have been working will serve you well though and can be used to distinguish you from other applicants applying with less than 2 years of work experience.

I encourage you to continue down the path you are on and you will achieve your goals. Prepare well for the GMAT and get that 720+ score as well as continue to earn high marks in your studies. These things will all make you an attractive applicant to any school you apply to when the time comes. Finally, in the event the HBS 2+2 program does not work out, I think you should consider working for a couple of years before applying to business school. Most schools prefer that you spend some time in the workforce. However, if you feel you are ready upon graduation and it makes sense for your career goals, then you should apply to enter direct from college.

Good luck,
Lisa

Thanks a lot Lisa I really appreciate your guidance. I will surely keep your advice in mind and work on it.

One final thing, 2 questions actually:

1. Considering my background (academic/work), do I over-represent any specific group in the applicant pool? Or perhaps under-represent?

2. If you had to say whether I should or should not apply for either HBS 2+2 or Yale Silver Scholars, what would you say? Again considering my present profile and with given assumptions about GMAT score, etc.

Thanks for being so helpful.

Regards,

RK

Dear RK,

The applicant pool for the HBS 2+2 and Yale Silver Scholars program is not quite the same as the regular MBA applicant pool. Thus it is hard to know if you part of an over- or under-represented group. I think you just have to present yourself in the best light and see what happens. As for which you should apply to between HBS and Yale, I'm afraid that is a decision you have to make based on your goals and what the programs offer. These schools are quite different from each other, so I think if you do some more research and visit if you can, one will start to feel like a better fit for you.

Good luck,
Lisa
