GMAT: 770 , AWA 5.5
GPA: 3.86 at McGill, Bachelor of Commerce
Languages: Fluent English and French (Canadian), intermediate Spanish, beginner German
Work Experience: less than 3 years, with non-profits though have had turnover with companies (all with good reason...moved with director, left to care for terminally ill mother). Communications, revenue development (including launch of a capital campaign) and working with at-risk youth. Also taught an undergraduate course in organizational behaviour to two undergraduate sections, and TA for cross cultural management clas at McGill.
Extracurricular: currently training for longest bike race in world (Tour D'Afrique, 12,000 km from Cairo to Cape Town), lots of volunteer and athletic experience though not with one single organization for a long period
Other specialties and experience: writing business plans for non-profits, started scholarship fund for inner-city youth, official agent and communications manager for Green Party candidate in provincial election, photography, scuba diving, travel, executor for my mother's estate
Overall, I am wondering to what an extent my varied involvement is a weakness? My target schools are:
-Columbia
-Berkeley
-Yale
-University of Toronto
-Oxford
and maybe York University, and a couple others
