Hello,

First of all, I would like to thank you for your help :)

Here is my profile :
- I'm a female 25-year-old candidate from Thailand.
- I graduated from a top university in Thailand with GPA of 3.51/4.00 in Accounting
- I'm working as an Auditor (senior associate) at PricewaterhouseCoopers Thailand. I'll have 4 years of working experience when the school starts.
- My GMAT score is 710 (91 percentile) with Quant 49 (77 percentile), Verbal 36 (81 percentile) and IR 8 (92 percentile)
- My extracurricular activities include teaching underprivileged children at slums and other places. I also conducted a award-winning short film competition to
help lessen corruption problem in my country.
- My post career goal is to be a finance manager in Energy Sector, which is the sector I audited during my years at PwC. I am particularly interested in Renewable energy and investment in energy sector in Southeast Asia.

I plan to apply to Wharton, Kellog (1-year program), Ross (University of Michigan), Columbia and London Business School.

What is my chance of getting into these schools?
Also, if you have any recommendations about things I should do to improve my profile, please tell me. I'll follow your advice.

Thank you.
Nat


Hey Nat!!
Great to hear from you!!!
I like your profile a lot. You have an interesting and unique background, and very laudable goals!
As a Thai female candidate with an excellent employer and an equally excellent GMAT you are already off to a very good start. I would need to know more detail about your work experience, your advancement your ECs and volunteer work, but basically things look very good.

I think your school list is a biiit challenging and you should spread out your target list to Top15/20 schools. But I also think that you can choose schools that fit your goals better. For example Haas and McCombs are two schools that have specific renewable energy finance programs that fit you PERFECTLY! Also, there is Rice, which is not a Top 10 schools, but given it is one of the best schools in Texas it places amazingly well in Oil and Gas (companies which of course also own renewable energy departments), and since your profile is quite strong you might also get some scholarship money there!

Anyhow, I'd be happy to help you further if you need any advice r.e. schools, strategy or anything. Just drop us a line!
