Hi!
I'm graduating this Spring with a Bachelors in Biology. I am thinking about applying to b-school for Fall 2011.
GPA: 3.55 from Case Western Reserve University
GMAT: not taken yet
Work exp: part time jobs including photography, research assistant, customer service
XC: various positions in fraternity including treasurer and alumni relations. spent two years on executive board; various community service including H4H and tutoring.
I speak Russian, not fluently, but conversationally-decent (3 years in college)
Lastly, I spent the summer of 2009 and will spend this upcoming summer in Russia working as an international counselor in summer camps for kids.
My top choice is Katz business school at the University of Pittsburgh because they have a dual degree MBA/Masters in International Business. The only additional requirement is having taken two college years of a language and you must intern abroad during the summer.
In regards to the program (MBA/MIB), do you think having been abroad two summers (the counselor job) is enough to substitute for the lack of actual professional work experience? Additionally, I guess what are my chances assuming a decent GMAT?
Thanks!
