Dear anisam212,

Congratulations on your score! It definitely helps to mitigate your GPA. However, there might still be concern by the admissions committees as these courses are recent for you. So while the GMAT demonstrates you have the aptitude for the material, your current performance raises a question regarding your motivation and maturity. It will be important for you to assuage these concerns on the optional essay.

More importantly than your GPA, the biggest hurdle for you will be your lack of professional work experience. You are targeting top programs that allow very few students to enroll directly from undergraduate programs. For those that do make the cut, they generally have high GMAT/high GPA plus exceptional internship or co-op experiences. If you feel you can put together a strong, compelling application demonstrating you are ready for business school now, then you should apply and see what happens.

Please understand: I think the potential in your candidacy is there for those few slots. I just want you to know what your hurdles are so you can address them directly in your applications.

Best of luck,
Lisa
