6. Post-MBA goal
Most of my work currently revolves around IT for regional banks. I would like to leverage the MBA experience and break into consulting/project management.
Please let me know if my age and low GPA will be an issue for adcoms. How much will I need to score for the GMAT to give me a realistic chance of getting in to these programs?
Is New Zealand a good option for an MBA?
Thanks for all the help.

5. Sounds good so far. Will have to wait on the GMAT, and get more info on your work experience though.
6. Okay.. this is something to think about. Is there any way for you to connect this a bit tighter with your current experience?
Let's get rocking.
