While you hail from an overpopulated applicant pool, there are a couple of things in your profile which I believe will help you stand out. One is your involvement in the oil and gas industry. This is a very "hot" area and would be interesting to adcoms perhaps more than the typical IT or engineering job. If you can spin this experience into a compelling story which ties into your desired work with the UN, you may just have the winning combination. Great GMAT score, but honestly that is expected from your applicant pool. You will stand out much better with an unusual story. hope this helps and let us know if we can be of assitance as you craft your applications.
