Dear jsub,

You have the foundation to put together a strong application. Your GMAT score will determine how competitive you will be at Georgetown and Boston University. You should aim for a score at or above a 670 to be the most competitive. As is the case for any applicant, the key is putting together your application so that you position yourself effectively. In addition to your future goals and rationale for your path to date, you will want to demonstrate your leadership potential, teamwork skills, and rationale for getting your MBA.

If you do not have many leadership experiences in your work experience, then it would be good to find opportunities in community activities. Perhaps there is a nonprofit you can get involved with? Or a project at work you can take the lead on? Since you will be on the younger side of the applicant pool, demonstrating your leadership potential is critical to your application.

Best of luck,
Lisa
