Re: Chances at Top MBA Programs [#permalink]
Your profile hits all the marks, but it is similar to that of many others, so bottom line is: Write some stellar essays! See the standard books https://www.amazon.com/Great-Application ... 878&sr=8-1 or https://www.amazon.com/How-Get-Into-Top- ... 911&sr=1-1 or search for info in the forums here. Best of Luck!

Profile looks great so far. ThomasD, have you used those books before? Any of the two you would specifically recommend?

Re: Chances at Top MBA Programs [#permalink]
I do not have the first, but I have the second book and am currently working through it. Being an avid gmatclub forum reader, many things will sound familiar - and I do not mean simply the GMAT aspects - however, I find it quite useful as a quick reference for the essay writing and general positioning aspects of the application. In the bigger scheme of things I feel it's $20 well spent

Thanks a lot. I will keep tab on the book as well once I finish my GMAT journey...
