Hello all,
I would be grateful if someone could quickly review my profile, and give their opinion on my chances at my target MBA programs. I am currently 24 years old.
- 3.27 overall GPA from a top private University in Texas, with a double major in Business and Economics. My last 4 semesters I had a 3.6 GPA, which included making Dean's list twice, adding a second major, and taking all but one upper level course
- Held an officer position in my University's Financial Analyst Program (this was a competitive program to be accepted into)
- Held multiple officer positions in my fraternity
- Currently working as an associate management consultant for a major international accounting firm ($4.2 billion revenue internationally in FY 2013)
- Plan to continue working in management consulting for 4-5 years before starting my MBA
- Haven't taken the GMAT yet, but I am aiming for a 700
- Will have at least my Certified Financial Services Auditor certification before starting, but am also aiming to have my PMP and CIA certifications
My top target programs are Columbia, Stern, Kellogg, and Booth. After my MBA, I want to focus in the financial area of consulting, or possibly work in VC/PE.
Opinions about my chances, and also how to strengthen my profile, are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
