Linda
Thank you for the evaluation.
Kellogg and Booth are not suggested because my profile would not be competitive or the concentration I seek?

Both in mechanical engg.
GMAT 700/90% overall (Q49, V35) and AWA 5.5
Seven years of experience as mechanical engg in a fortune 500 company. The experience has been of increasing responsibility. Project leadership and management experience; people management experience in the last two years. Several patents granted and many pending applications. Volunteering and leadership experience in organizing multiple employee engagement events for the last 3 years.
As I have proven my thought leadership, I need to enhance my skills in finance and strategy. After MBA, I would like to move into product management and business strategy.
Please suggest target schools and evaluate my chances.
Consider
Tuck,
Ross,
Darden,
Cornell,
CMU, and
NYU Stern.
Tuck would be a reach program. You have a competitive profile for the rest.
Best,
Linda
