Evaluate my Updated Profile - 3.99 GPA 730 GMAT [#permalink]
03 Oct 2010, 14:21
Here's my planned list of schools:
Columbia Harvard Wharton Duke NC Chapel-Hill
I'm currently in sales but looking to get an MBA in finance.
White Male, 25
GMAT: 730 (47Q, 42V)
GPA: 3.99 from a private Division III university
Work Experience: 3 years in software sales at two different companies. #3 salesperson out of team of 150, promoted to sales manager and led team of 8-12 sales representatives. Switched companies for more potential and to learn enterprise sales ($1M+ deals). Promoted to manager at new company after 1 year.
Extracurriculars: Good in college but mostly hobbies since then. I started an investment blog that has over 5000 visits per month, and have been published on several financial news websites for stock writeups/analysis. Proven and verifiable stock trading record of beating the market over the past 18+ months.
I'm hoping to use my blog and trading background as a reason for going back to b-school for a degree in finance. Overall goal is to start my own investment partnership.
Chances? Any hopes at getting a fellowship or other financial aid?
