Hello. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile evaluation. I'm trying to get a read on what my chances are at getting into my one and only school/program I'm interested in: University of Michigan - Ross School of Business (Weekend MBA Program).
Age: 24
Race: Caucasian (USA)
GMAT - Currently studying for the GMAT, took the first GMAT Prep test with no preparation (for reference) and got a 570. Expecting to get in the 680-720 range after 6 months of studying.
Undergrad GPA - 3.60 - Cum Laude in Human Resource Management from Oakland University (Regional school in Southeast Michigan)
Internship experience: Hired as an intern in college as an HR Assistant, promoted to HR Generalist during last semester of senior year (120 employee company)
Full time experience: Worked ~5 years in corporate retail with progressive responsibility increases (up to Assistant Manager). Post-graduate (currently employed here) experience is 1+ year at Fortune 10 tech company working in Supply Chain.
Accomplishments/Leadership: History of results/promotions. Currently in leadership training program and on path toward leadership with current employer, realistically looking at a leadership role in 2012.
Extracurricular and random information: Owned a website business (tiny, just me), avid musician and music artist, have lived in 5 states, created tech-related training/tutorials for co-workers and public, currently in the process of publishing a novel.
I'm wondering what my chances are at getting into this Michigan-Ross Weekend program in the next 1-2 years. What can I do to bolster my resume? Let's assume I get a 700 on the GMAT. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated -- thanks!
