Hi. I am looking to apply either Fall 2013 for 2014 matriculation or Fall 2014 for 2015 matriculation.

Background
Asian Female / 22 (Will be 23 by Fall 2013 / 24 by Fall 2014)

GMAT
750 (Q49, V44), 98th percentile

Education
Graduated in three years from top 20 private university ('11)
GPA: 3.56 GPA
Double Major: Mathematical Economic Analysis and German Studies

Extracurricular
In college: Copy editor for the university newspaper, tutor for the German Studies Department, women's singles player for intramural tennis.
Post college: Volunteer with non-profit that helps financially disadvantaged high school students get into / prepare for college and land internships and jobs. Mentor and recruiter at work.

Work Experience
Two years at a top implementation management consulting firm (Accenture/Deloitte). Finance projects at Fortune 500 Energy clients (no strategy work). Recently promoted. High performance with excellent recommendations from executives.

Certifications
None

Questions

The main reason I'm interested in applying in Fall 2013 is because I have the best shot at getting a scholarship from my firm that would fully cover my MBA.

1. I want to sign up for a pro bono project for a non-profit (through my firm). However, in this situation I would have to delay applying until Fall 2014. Do you recommend doing this (i.e. would this heavily bolster my application)?

2. I'm a little below the average age of applicants. Does that put me at a disadvantage? It's another reason why I'm considering applying in Fall 2014.

3. Do I need more work experience? Again, if I apply in Fall 2014, I will have three years of work experience.

4. What schools do I have a shot at?

5. What should my application strategy be?

Many thanks.
