Stacy,
I would appreciate if you could provide input/feedback on my chances to get into part time MBA. I am targeting the weekend MBA programs at GSB -Univ. of Chicago and Kellogg
My background:
I am 30 years old. I have a Masters degree in Engineering from the University of Texas, Austin GPA 3.8/4.0.
Received -Academic Competency scholarship
2-years work exp. part time as a Graduate Research Assistant
Academic Honor societies-Phi Kappa Phi and Omega Rho
Undergraduate degree in Engineering with Honors from Indian Institute of Technology(IIT) GPA 3.4/4.0
I have a total work experience of 6 years in various companies(Steel, Machinery, Consulting) and am currently working as a 6 Sigma Black Belt in a Fortune 100 Manufacturing Company and in addition i was given some honorary roles/responsibilities.I have a very strong quantitative background.
I am expecting good recommendations from my workplace
I have one Technical Paper, published in a Mechanical Engineering Journal and have 2 Patents filed on my behalf through the company that i currently work for.
GMAT: 660 (84percentile)
Quant 50 (95 percentile)
Verbal 30 (57 percentile)
AWA of 5.5 (83 percentile)
on the Verbal i used to score well during practice exams...however, things went a bit different on the test.
Extra curriculars: I am a member of professional organization such as APICS etc. and I was part of National Social Service organization, when i was as undergrad. I am well read and am active in sports.
My verbal score is not upto the mark, however, i am hoping or thing that my quant. score(50), AWA score(5.5) , work experience, GPA and recommendations might compensate ?
How good are my chances for getting into the weekend MBA program at GSB- Chicago or Kellogg ?
Any other advice that you could provide to make my case stronger would be appreciated.
Thanks
