Hello,
Please give me an honest evaluation. I was drawn to and applied to Babson's Fast Track program based on the school's reputation in entrepeneurship.
-DISMISSED from UCLA with a 2.1 GPA (video game addiction) in 1997
-Completed bachelor's in marketing at U of Phoenix (yuck!) with 3.6 GPA in 2003
-No GMAT score (confident I can hit 650+; admissions director told me that I may not need to submit)
-11 years total experience at 2 high tech start-ups.
-6 years experience at start-up as 12th employee; company eventually had successful IPO. Had roles as customer support supervisor, product specialist, project manager, API program manager, manager of strategic projects. Instrumental in securing company's largest customer. I was promoted 4 times and managed 3 different teams. Team sizes ranged from 4-15 people.
-Left company on good terms and started my own hardware reselling and technology consulting company 5 years ago. Current position is President. Company currently has 5 employees with revenues that will be around $1.3 million in 2009 and $4 million in 2010. Profitable since 2007.
-I am specifically drawn to Babson because of its entrepeneurial focus.
Are there any other schools I should consider? I can only consider distance learning programs for now (need to stay in 1 place to manage the company) or schools that are local to the bay area of california.
Thanks so much!
