Hi,

Thanks for your post. You certainly seem to have an interesting profile. Your job in supply chain isn't as common for business school applicants as those from other industries such as consulting and banking. This will certainly help you stand out in the applicant pool.

Your academics seem quite good and on par with some of the top 15 programs in the US. Your interest in dance is fantastic. I strongly encourage you to find a way to weave the experience into an essay for each application.

In regard to scholarships, most business schools do provide scholarships to some female candidates. Each schools qualifications are individual, but most do indeed offer some type of financial assistance for those in minority groups such as female candidates. I strongly encourage you to look at programs such as Darden and Cornell.

Best,

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."
