Hi,

Thanks for your post. Your work experience to date is quite unique and will certainly help you stand out in the applicant pool. Your experience combined with your post MBA goals are logical and the adcom will clearly understand your desire for an MBA.

The one weakness I can see is your GMAT score. UCI has an average GMAT of 675, while the other schools on your list have averages above 700. I'm not sure how you prepared for the exam or how many times you've taken it, but you may wish to consider retaking it with a goal of 650+. This will certainly help strengthen your profile.

Please feel free to send you resume to [email protected] for a detailed assessment.

Regards,

Stacey
