Profile Evaluation

Hi,

Thanks for your post. Your profile seems quite solid, however, upon review I am more inclined to suggest a part time program over a full time program. Given the number of years of work experience combined with your entrepreneurial experience a part time program seems like it would be a better fit. Most full time programs cater to those with 2-4 years of experience where as part time are geared towards those with 8+.

In terms of your GMAT score. It all really depends on where you want to apply. A 670 is a solid score for many programs, but if you are considering top tier part time programs like those offered at Wharton or Berkeley, I strongly suggest you consider retaking with a goal of 700+.

Lastly, part time programs aren't as concerned about extracurricular activities as full time programs, so you need not worry about this!

Best,

Stacey

Thank you so much for the response. So, if I understand this correctly, I should focus on my application for part time MBA programs and preferably retake GMAT.

How about extra extracurricular , is what I have enough ( even for part time ). Just wondering coz most people on this site have a solid extracurricular .

Hi,

Yes, exactly. Focus on part time and think about retaking the GMAT. A score of 700+ can really open up a range of possibilities for you in terms of schools. Don't sweat the extracurricular activities (or lack there of), they really don't have as much importance in part time programs since there isn't an expectation of involvement in student run clubs and organizations.

Best,

Stacey
