GRE total: 335 (169 V, 166 Q) - it doesn't show above for some reason

4 years working as an electrical engineer designing power systems for buildings. Worked at the same international firm for all 4 years with 2 promotions; licensed as a professional engineer in the state of California. Aiming to enter an operations/product-related role at an electrical manufacturing company (e.g. Siemens, Schneider Electric).
Extracurriculars: Post-college, did significant pro bono work for Habitat for Humanity (200 hours) in designing electrical systems for their largest housing development in a major US geographical area. During college, led and managed 2 separate projects - one was presented at an IEEE conference and the other was a finalist in a schoolwide engineering/design competition. Major passion and focus on sustainability and efficiency in both extracurriculars and career.

Sorry for the late reply. Awesome GRE score! Great job!

You look like a very competitive candidate as you are likely one a small group of women in this line of work and have faced adversity on your path and had to work harder than others. You have applied to the correct programs.

If things are not working out, you may want to chat with some of the current students, friends, alums, or consultants about your profile and see if perhaps there is a reason the AdCom does not see you as having strong chances of breaking through to your post MBA goal.

But manufacturing is not a huge destination/placement for most schools unfortunately. https://gmatclub.com/forum/best-mba-pro ... 21312.html
