Hi all,
I've been reading the posts in this very interesting forum for a while...I'm now sending my own post because I'm desperately in need of a piece of advice. Thanks in advance for your answers.
I'm a 36 years old senegalese living in Paris. My study background: high school and undergraduate( 4 year study) in Senegal, Africa, master in law, master in business from french universities, prepared a Phd in law(microfinance issues) for 2 years before dropping it. I've been working for 7 years in retail banking( Im currently a branch manager( 5 year experience in management)). My test scores: GMAT( 610) toefl IBT 111 pts. I want to work in project finance. I'm planning to apply to LBS, Insead and HEC Paris for the january 2010 intake.
Do you think my profile could interest those BS?
I don't know either if my Gmat score (610( Q 37, V 37) is enough or if I have to retake the test. I'm a little bit frustrated because my scores in the prep tests were OK ( GMAC: 480, 560 at the beginning and then 640, 690, 680, 700; Kaplan, 610, but a low 550 with princeton). My weakness is the quantitative part. To improve my score, should i consider a prep class?
And should I be concerned about my age( 37 when I start the mba)?
Thanks a lot in advance for your advice!
