I am highly interested in HEC Paris because of its "Energy and Finance Certificate" and its location.
Just trying to identify and weak-points that I should address or strengths I should emphasize given my background.
Thanks in advance~!
I think your GMAT score and international experience (kudos on that exceptional bike ride!) will interest HEC Paris, but I worry that your years of work experience may be a bit light. Since you are from Korea, you probably served in the Korean military. If you were an officer or served in a similarly interesting role with leadership, you should certainly draw upon these experiences in your application as well to buttress that weaker work experience.
