Hi everyone! Super excited to share that I'm a deferred candidate from this year so will be joining the Oxford MBA in August 2026 – got my offer secured (yay!). Originally from China, I've been crunching numbers in accounting, but now I'm switching gears to dive into the consulting world. After some intense times at a Big Four firm, I'm ready for this new adventure. Can't wait to meet you all, exchange stories, and learn from the diverse crowd at Oxford. Here's to new challenges, loads of coffee, and making some great memories together! See you soon!

29M, Latin American, 690 GMAT
Hello,
I am a Peruvian applying for Round 2:
* GMAT: 690 (Q:47|V:38|IR:8)
* Undergrad: Management degree from top college in my country, GPA 3.9, top 10% of class.
* First-generation college student
* Work Experience: 7 years work experience in corporate finance/corporate development. Did investment banking for 1 year and then transitioned to corporate finance in the industrial/mining/energy sectors. Currently, I am working in an energy company doing M&A and developing renewable energy projects. In the two years since I joined, my company tripled its installed capacity through big M&A acquisition and the completion of a big solar project, in which I had a leading role.
* EC: After college I was a teaching assistant for 2 years at my university, and during COVID (2020-2022) I joined a local NGO that provided advisory to SMEs in my country.
* My goal after MBA is to continue in the energy sector but relocate to Europe or US join a big energy company or PE fund focused on renewables.
