Hi everybody,
I am in need of some expert advice. I decided to go to business school about a month ago due to a number of factors and just took the GMAT this last week. I know I am late in the process, but I also know that the last round is supposed to be very competitive. I have 2 choices:
(1) rush and apply to 2nd to last round at stanford and Haas
(2) wait until the last round and have a more complete application.
Thus far I have secured 2/3 recommendation letters, scored a 680 on the GMAT (can definitely do better the next time), and have not yet started my essays. I have a 3.15 gpa from uc berkeley engineering, 7 years of enterprise marketing experience in both small and large companies, and 1 startup that didn't get off the ground (one of the aforementioned factors).
What are your recommendations? Any and all opinions are very much appreciated.
