profile evalution

[hittomiss45]

I recently took the GMAT and got a 630 on it. I have 1 year of work experience as a Executive Team Leader at Target Co. I graduated from suny geneseo with a 3.3. I have also been a Tae Kwon Do coach for several universities for over 3 years which gave me alot of leadership experience. I was born in Russia and am fluent in russian and spanish.


I am looking to apply at Cornell, University of Buffalo, Penn State, and University of Binghamton.

My number one choice is Penn State.

Can you suggest any other schools for me, and do i have a good chance to get into penn state?

Dear hittomiss45,

I think you have a shot at Penn State. What makes the difference for any applicant is how well you put your application together. It is imperative you present a strong rationale for why you want a MBA, how it fits into your overall career plan, and why the school you are applying to is a good match for you. Likewise, you must distinguish yourself from the competition and demonstrate successful leadership experiences/evidence of leadership potential. In terms of other schools, I would suggest you look at our sticky on schools selection for tips and suggestions.

Good luck,
Lisa
