Hi,
I just came back from my GMAT and now I would like to have my "quite unusual" profile evaluated.
The basics:
30 years old white male
Born and living in Germany
GMAT 710 (q47, v41)
TOEFL 114 of 120 (IBT)
Undergraduate Education
Bachelor of Computer Science (University of Potsdam)
GPA 2,3 (on a 1-5 scale where 1 is best)
Currently doing distance courses with the aim at becomming additional bachelor of business administration (half finished - current GPA 1,7 on a 1-5 scale where 1 is best)
Working experience
3 years military (sports soldier / competive athlete)
2,5 years junior project manager (biggest wholesaler in Europe)
1 year junior project director (start-up)
Currently as project director I am project lead for projects up to 8 employees with diverse background (design, engineering, IT). I am responsible for project up to 400k$.
Other achievements
I did 13 years of professional sport and was 7 years member of the national canoe team. I was twice medal-winner in international championships and member of the Olympic team for 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney.
I would like to start my MBA in 2008.
Questions
1. I would like to apply to Stanford (I love this school), Harvard, MIT, NY Stern - what are my chances?
2. Should I mention my distance learning studies even when they are not yet finished, or do I have to finish it before applying?
3. I am member of "Mensa International" - should I mention this when applying?
4. I don't want to ask my current boss for a letter of reference because this might look bad when i am not going to be accepted. Is this negative for my application?
Thanks for your comments.
Best regards,
Marc
