It will be good to understand achievements at JPM as well as the reason for leaving Vanguard so soon - that's something adcoms would want to hear. It will also be good to explain why MBA when the startup seems to be doing g...

I would echo Jon's assessment here. We've worked with folks in that vicinity successful - read here.

Yes, a 20+ point bump in GMAT will definitely help but may not be a deal breaker - so plan your available time prudently. R3 is always tricky, but no harm in trying I would ...
