mbaanimal:
I was an enlisted guy. Did 4 years as a Marine grunt, got out as E-5. My profile:
GRE - 1510 (Q 780, V 730) ~ 750 GMAT according to the conversion tool
GPA - 3.74 (humanities) at Univ of Georgia
Focus - nonprofit-
Community Service - Wounded Warrior Proj, Special Operations Warrior Foundation, founded 501c3 last year
So far:
Dinged at Harvard w/o int (that one hurt)
Int with Darden, waiting
Int with Ross (this went horribly. Unprofessional enough that I actually sent a complaint to Adcom), waiting
Waiting on Columbia (submitted 1/5)
Waiting on NYU (submitted 1/7)
All Round 2.
I'm a little concerned that I won't get in anywhere. If you look at the military organizations at these schools, seems like they're almost all West Point/Annapolis guys. It sucks to have spent all the money and time, but if I get skunked I'll take the GMAT for next year and take an accounting course or something. Someone will let me in if I bang on the door hard enough. Not getting discouraged!
