GRE: 328
GPA: 2.6/4 (how did I have the audacity you ask?^.^)
Work Ex: 10 years, media including Google [global]
Social Impact: 15 years, including UN, WWF, National Forest Departments
Notes: I wrote my essay on overcoming racism and sexual assault during undergrad in America. It wasn't a sob story, because it isn't. It has had a profound impact on my compassion, understanding of gender equality and courage to take on social impact work, both in my career and outside of it.
I was hoping some stories transcend numbers and to convince Stanford of the same! If not, I am beyond lucky and grateful to have hit 3/4 with 3 of the other best schools in the world <3
Not really sure, if you are asking for advice, or telling us of your admits to have hit 3/4 with 3 of the other best schools in the world.
That said, with your GPA, high work-ex, and not so stellar GRE, you indeed have challenges in convincing AdComs of your Academic Calibre; If you have been able to get those admissions, your applications have had that compelling story, told with a genuine touch, and the convincing power to have the AdComs agree to take a risk on you.
Wishing you the best of luck ahead...
