If you check out the website you are on the high end of the class profile for P/T. I would say you would get in, but I'm not an expert. How many years of work experience?
I'm a bit more on the low end of the class profile. I might re-take the GMAT being at 25th percentile, but I'm not sure how much better I could do. I've scored 670 on practice tests, but scored 650 on test day.
White Male
4 years (at matric.) at Bank of America as a market risk manager w/ 0 directs
1 year at Duke Energy as a plant systems engineer
1.5 years as design engineer for URS (engineering/consulting firm)
GMAT: 650
ECs: 4 years of club rowing at Clemson, habitat/humane society past few months
UnderGrad GPA: ~3.4 (Electrical Engineering @ Clemson)
Masters GPA: ~3.3 (Mathematical Finance @ UNCC)
Age: Will be 28 at matriculation
Post-MBA goals: ??? I really need to work on my story. I have worked alongside balance sheet hedging traders for 3 years at matric and a natural progression would be trading. The Booth MBA would get me there but I don't think this is that great of a story.
I'd like to do the organizational concentration as I think I have a very technical background/experience, and I think getting the broad management training would prepare me for a senior leadership role.
Maybe I would be a better fit for Kellogg P/T?
