I am a 24 year old Asian female
GMAT score: 740 (49Q, 41V)
GPA: 4.1/5.0 (in engineering from #1 engineering school in US, graduated in 2009)
Work experience: 2 years as an associate at one of the big 3 management consulting firms (McK, BCG, Bain). On track for promotion
Extracurriculars: recreational dance, mentoring program for inter-city students
Post MBA goals: undecided...but probably remain in consulting
Target programs: Wharton, Harvard, MIT Sloan, Kellogg, Stanford, London Business School
Would I be a competitive candidate? Due to my low GPA, I'm wondering if it would be worth it to retake the GMAT (I was consistently scoring 770/780 on my practice exams)? Additionally, should I apply this year or wait a year to gain more work experience? If these schools are unrealistic, could you suggest more realistic schools? Any advice on what other extracurriculars would be helpful? Should I take extension classes?
Thanks,
