Hello, would love a profile evaluation!
Background and education:
White US female, graduated from top 3 program in my field of study biomedical engineering at Georgia Tech. GPA 3.13, which is not great but Georgia Tech’s cut offs for graduating with honors was 3.15 at the time, for context. During school, I did 3 semesters of full time work in biomedical engineering and 2 semesters working part time. I also did 6 semesters of undergrad research, wrote a research thesis, and got published for a different research project in IEEE BIBE journal (high impact factor journal, but i was not primary author).
Haven’t taken GMAT yet, but got 750 on official MBA.com practice test. I did well on high school standardized tests so I’m pretty sure that is an achievable score.
Work experience:
After graduating college, cofounded a startup for 1 year which did not succeed but had some good early traction. We went through Georgia Tech’s createX accelerator and got a Y Combinator interview but did not get in to Y Combinator. it was in the health AI space.
following failed startup, I have been working in clinical research and also doing consulting for med device startups as a side hustle for 2 years. 3 years work experience total.
Targeting Stanford GSB, MIT Sloan, and thinking 2025 or 2026 since I probably need more YOE and a stand-out volunteer experience or 2. Possible to get admitted?
