Hello Guys/Gals,

I was hoping to get some feedback on my situation and chances at getting into a good business school in the US (Top 20).

I believe I have a unique story, but I have doubts if it will be good enough to help me get in, even if I achieved a 700 plus GMAT score.

First off,

I have NO work experience! (That might give you an answer right away!)

I have interned on the floor of the NYSE, and did another summer internship at a bank in NYC that was owned by an Alum who graduated from my College and is a doner for the basketball program there.

I played four years of college basketball at the division one level, and I am playing professionally in Europe this year.

I have a 3.72 GPA (Finance), I was All Conference Academic Team, and was given a few other academic/athletic awards from the NCAA.

For whatever it is worth, I speak two languages fluently, and I have attended numerous community service events throughout NY.

Overall, I am an extremely hard working guy, and I think I interview very well. I enjoy talking and I think I could sell myself pretty well if given the chance.

However, I am extremely pessimistic that my lack of work experience will help me get into the top layer of B Schools. It is a shame because I have a lot of free time in between practices everyday to study. For the past 2 months I have average around 2:30 hours of good studying, and I am feeling more confident in my progress in regards to the test.

Thank you ahead of time!

PS I am sorry if this is not the correct area of the forum to place questions like this in.

Considering your profile, it would help if you have an year or two of work exp. Give the GMAT now, and then work for some time. The scores are valid for 5 yrs. Though the colleges say that they have ppl with NO wrk exp, the colleges prefer ppl with some.

Hi Milan,

What's the rush to go to school? It sounds like you are living a super-cool life right now, and it can only get better. Now, this is coming from someone who was accepted at HBS during her senior year of college and then spent two years having a blast on a deferral. I lived in Ghana for one year and spent a year at Harvard Kennedy School. I'm really glad I didn't jump RIGHT into business school after college, though some of my friends who did it had a great experience doing so.

My suggestion to you is to take the GMAT and see what your official score is. Then, continue working whatever magic you've been working to have such great internships and experiences to get a full-time job you really enjoy and can learn from.

Good luck!
