Hey guys- Thanks so much for doing this!

24/Asian/Male - plan on applying for the fall of 2014

Work Experience
I Spent 1 year doing an education-based Americorps program in a mid-sized city in the South. I am currently working as a junior researcher for a research institute that studies education and is affiliated with a large, reputable research university. My job primarily consists of doing statistical analyses (ie cleaning data, regression analysis, and a bit of mapping). I have been at my job for 1.5 years. Also, before my Americorps year, I spent three months at a large internationally focused NGO.

GMAT
730 (q48 v42). I also took the GRE and scored a 1410 (q800 v610)

College Info
Top 10 LAC. Majored in math and economics and graduated with a 3.4 out of 4.

Extracurricular Activities
In college I was President of Model UN and I tutored students at a local middle school twice a week. I currently am on the alumni board of the Americorps organization I worked for. Also hope to start tutoring students on weekends.

Target Programs
Best school I can get into - Maybe Wharton/Columbia/Chicago

Post MBA goals
I could lie and say I know want to do, but for right now I am unsure(obviously I would have a tighter story when I actually apply, but I know for certainty I d dont want to be an academic). Maybe transition to economic consulting.

Thanks!!!

Well, you are definitely off to a good start. Americorps, good grades, great GMAT. If you continue along this path, there's no reason why you shouldn't apply to Top 10 programs. It's a bit early to do a real evaluation as you have quite a long time before you apply, and also thankfully quite a long time to figure out what it is you want to do.
