Hello,
I had a low GPA as un undergraduate at The College of Wooster (Ohio,) 2.7 to be exact. The GPA was brought down significantly by a Spanish course that I did horribly in. For graduate school admission purposes, it was suggested to me, that I retake any courses that I may have received low marks in, to show improvement. I recently retook that same Spanish course at Depaul University and received an A in it. I majored in English but unfortunately did not take any quantitative classes during my time as an undergrad.
I just took the GMAT and received a 700. I have roughly 4 years of work experience at a community bank. I started as a teller immediately after college, then worked as a teller supervisor, and a personal banker, before transitioning into lending, which is my current position. I am aware that the very top schools may be out of my reach, but I am most interested in the top 25. What are my chances of admission into the top 15-25 range based on my current profile?
I noticed in previous posts, that taking 1 or 2 quantitative courses to try and demonstrate a proficiency in this area helps in the admission process. I am curious about specific subjects or courses that a business school would be most interested in seeing a candidate succeed. Thank you for your help.
