Hello, as the title suggests I'm trying to decide whether to apply this year or next. Here is my background:
Age: 28 this year
GMAT: 690 (45/40), planning to retake
School: BYU, GPA 3.83, Psychology/Business Strategy. Only 7-8 quant classes, but did well
Work: Deloitte Consulting (Strategy & Ops) - good experience and ratings, multiple projects involving Japanese and travel to Tokyo. Internship during undergrad in finance role (F100 company)
Extra-Currics: Junior Achievement Lead (36 classrooms), Kiva.org team organizer, ultra-marathon runner, Boston Marathon finisher, LDS Mission (Japan), BYU Strategy Program Alumni Chapter Lead, Management Consulting Club President (during UG)
Post MBA Goals: Corp strategy or leadership rotation program for F100 company
After some thought, I've broken it down into two likely options:
1. Apply this year
2. Switch to corp strategy job now, apply next year
Thank you in advance for the feedback and consideration.
