Hey everyone. This is my first post on the forum. Not sure if this is the right place, so if it needs to be moved go ahead.
I'm currently a sophomore at Appalachian State University but I will be finishing up in 2011 hopefully with a double major in Marketing and Management-Entrepreneurship Concentration (taking a couple summer courses to let me graduate in 3 years). I have a 3.49 GPA as of right now, but I'm planning on pushing that up some more. I'm also in the honors program on campus.
I'm in the marching band at App State. Bass Drum section leader this year and most likely next. I'm getting involved this year with some clubs on campus (American Marketing Association and the Association of Student Entrepreneurs). I'm also involved with college church group playing in the worship band every week.
So after all that, I'm looking for some advice. I'm wanting to go to school for a full-time MBA program. I'd love to be able to go right after undergrad, but I know that this is not the easiest thing to do. Some of the schools I've looked at are Harvard, Chicago, Vanderbilt, and UNC.
I haven't taken the GMAT yet, but I took a practice test on GMATPrep and got a 730, 49Q, 41V. The Quant might be a little skewed because I had looked at some of the math questions prior to taking it, but most of them I had never seen.
So what would be my best option? Is it worth applying to these places next year or should I wait for a couple years? Any advice is helpful. Thanks ahead of time. Sorry for the long first post.
