Looks like you have great foundation with an awesome score. The only other consideration Adcom will have will be your undergrad (how elite or competitive it was).

You will only get stronger and more appealing as a candidate since you are at 2 years of work experience. Most of these programs are looking for folks with around 4-6 years (based on averages) as those folks get more suited for mid-management positions. With only 2-3 years you will need to demonstrate strong growth and maturity. The concern will be employability.

Thanks bb! My undergrad was USC in California, how do you think that would look to adcoms? I was promoted once last July, and I am on track for another promotion this July. I also had my own e-commerce business in college with 6 figure revenue totals at the end of it, which I'm hoping is unique experience that adds to my candidacy. I'm certainly hoping that all helps me out for this year!

Will look amazing! Both undergrad and experience.

PS. I would be totally giving it a shot. Just make sure you come off mature in the application and show confidence in the interview (not arrogance though) as that’s what Adcom will be concerned about.

Hi seahawksjoe
Priyanka here from ARINGO. Speaking about your profile, your GMAT looks good for the schools you are targeting. I am slightly concerned about your years of work experience. Although I read about your promotions and your ecommerce business, I think they should add value to your profile. I would also recommend that you add a few safe schools too. It will also be important for you to demonstrate impact at workplace.
