Hello all,
I have recently decided to explore the option of going back to school to get my MBA as a way to advance my career in a direction I want to see it go in. In my initial research of schools, the best programs/offerings for my particular wants are:
Here's a brief overview of my resume:
- 3.2 undergrad GPA in M.I.S.
- Multiple extracurricular activities/leadership positions in undergrad, as well as 4 years of participation in varsity athletics
- Internship experience in the IT department of a top 15 health system, as well as with one of the largest technology providers in the country
- 2 years of consulting experience in the healthcare information technology space for a large medical technology company, working on multiple EMR implementations
- Excellent presentation skills and communication skills
- Interests in running, social media, technology, and volunteerism
With the resume listed above, do you think it is possible for me to get into any of my chosen schools with a 670-700 score on the GMAT? I know my weaknesses and intend on dedicating myself fully to preparing to take the test in time for round 1 of admissions this year.
I truly think that my consulting experience will be a huge asset - especially given that my career goal is to get an MBA and use that to re-enter the business world as a management consultant. I just want an idea of what it's going to take to get me an interview, especially with Ross.
Thanks in advance for your help! It is much appreciated.
