Hi,

Thanks for your post. Your academic profile is solid and right on par with the schools on your list. However, your activities appear to be limited since graduating from undergrad (or am I misinterpreting this information?).

My main concern is that you are indeed a bit on the younger side. While I understand you will have 3 years of experience at matriculation, it's important for you to know that bschools look only at the experience you have at the time of application, therefore you are applying with just two years of experience. I understand you have some personal issues that seem to be forcing the earlier application, but I do hope you know that even with your solid experience to date (including your international experience) and your good academics, you may still struggle to gain admission. You will need to convince the adcom that you are at a point in your career where going to bschool makes sense (you can't tell them you would rather wait but aren't able to do so). This may be a bit of a challenge given your tenure.

I hope this helps as you think about your plans moving forward.

Regards,

Stacey

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
