Not sure how I can spend my time on professional development - my office isn't the sort that allows me to take charge of things I believe in or care for. I didn't get either rec from my current workplace, actually. I'm at the top of my peer group, but leaving for bschool is viewed somewhat negatively here.
As for EC/volunteer work, I've killed it with ECs on my app - I'm in four very significant leadership roles with well-known or international organizations. My EC commitments cross 20-25 hours a week, on average, and I do things on the scale of raising $100K every year and/or feeding entire villages in Africa. They all tie in directly with my career goals. So not sure what more I could do with ECs here.
Not being defensive, guys. Just looking for what I can do to make myself look better. Kellogg's my dream school, and it hurts a bit right now.
