Profile Evaluation Request for HBS 2+2

by person999 » Wed Jan 25, 2012 8:53 pm
Hello I am looking to apply for HBS2+2 program and am wondering what my chances are considering my low GPA.

GMAT: 750 (Q49, V44, AWA6)
Expected GPA: ~2.9 with an up curve.
Major: Electrical Engineering
WE: 6 internships in telecommunications, manufacturing, and research. All related to my major.
Extracurricular: President of a club at my university. Just started a small web design company where I'm the only employee.

Additionally, would there be a particularly advantageous round for me to apply in? And what type of consultant would someone with my profile be looking for?

Thanks

Edit: I am graduating in 2013, when is the best time for me to contact a consultant?

Hey-

Your gmat is amazing, congrats on that. Since your still in college, your gmat is really important since you don't have that much work experience, I think. Also your clearly in the whole engineering sector which 2+2 is apparently a huge fan of. Only thing maybe would be your gpa would be a concern, but your gmat is so strong so they know you'l be able to handle the work; so the gpa shouldn't be to big of a problem. Other than that, good luck! I'll be applying too I think. Check out my post please!
