Please help evaluate my profile and chances of getting admitted into London Business School and INSEAD. Thank you.

GMAT: 670
AWA: 5

Undergrad: 2.9 (I know this is terrible), Business Administration, University of Florida

Work Experience: 6 years all in China, Sales - Engineering/Construction and Real Estate

2nd Language: Advanced Mandarin Chinese

Citizenship: USA

I should have some compelling stories to tell in my essays about my experience and do "check" the "international box" of both schools but would like your opinion on my boiler plate profile. Let me know if additional information will help you in your assessment. Thanks!

Nothing less there but it looks like you need to put some meat through the EC's.

We would like to know more about your stories and then comment.

2.9 GPA is low but then people with good reasons have made through. Refine your reason-presentation.

Sorry, im not sure what you mean by "Nothing less there"... could you please explain?

Also, I am a little reluctant to elaborate further on my profile. Is that ok?

"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."
