Hi,
I'd like to know if my Master's GPA and GMAT score can overcome my poor undergraduate GPA.
GMAT - 730
Undergraduate - Cornell University, Electrical Engineering. GPA - 2.82 downward trend. Took 5 years to graduate and I did fail classes.
Work Exp - 8 years
Graduate GPA - 3.7 from a local university in Engineering. I took classes on and off since I paid for my degree while working. I took 5.5 years to complete my Graduate degree part-time. Does this look bad that I took 5.5 years or does it look ok since I was working full-time while pursuing my Master's? I do have two Withdraw ("W") grades as I was busy with work and I had to withdraw classes.
But, other than that I have mostly As and 2 Bs.
Does my GMAT and Grad GPA offset my poor undergraduate GPA? I would like to aim for a top 25 MBA program.
Is there anything else I can do to offset my poor academic past?
Thanks,
Ashley
