Deferred MBA Profile Review 26 Jun 2024, 16:35

­Hi! Thanks in advance for the profile review, or any comments you have on my profile. Looking to apply to deferred admission programs at some top schools (mainly H & S) this year as I'm an incoming senior, so wanting to see how I'm looking at this point.

Main Profile
  • Undergrad: GPA 3.98/4.00 (7% or greater in class, as more precise %s are not available yet) with a double major in Economics and English. I'm at a US T20ish school.
    • ECs: I am a TA for 3 (possibly 4 this year) classes, with a head position in one class. In my main club (professional development organization), I held a key leadership position and made a tangible impact. Hold another campus job at the art museum as a tour guide, and was also an RA last year and will be this year as well.
  • Test: Took the GMAT FE with a score of 695 (supposedly a 98%tile, equivalent to a 740 or 750, but we'll see if percentiles get updated)
    • Took the test a second time but didn't improve,,, even though my mocks were improving. So not sure if it's worth continuing to try.
  • Internship / Full Time: Interned at an MBB firm and recieved a return offer which I am going to after graduation. Internship was between sophomore and junior year, so am now working at a farm this summer (like literally doing the weeding and harvesting).
  • LORs: Hoping to get one from the partner/mentor I had at MBB, and then one from a teacher I've connected with at school.
  • Demographics: Don't think it matters too much, but I'm upper middle class, latino and white, and I'm gay — happy pride haha!
Let me know if any other information would be helpful for evaluating my profile, and once again, thanks so much in advance!­

­Your acads are excellent. Overall ECAs and the work experience looks great. A job offer at MBB implies you are already vetted and that would be a reassurance for b-schools. No harm in deweeding and harvesting ( I'd love someone to deweed my garden), but you can make the farm experience more productive by helping with activities and decisions that help the farm become more profitable. That would also tie well with your b-school applications.
For your LOR, I hope you mean you will get the second one from a proff at college. A school reco will be too far back in time.

You've got a lot of good things covered:

1. Good academics - School brand, GPA and GMAT.
2. Decent internship track record, and a solid work plan for the next two years.
3. Hope fully good LORs
4. Good EC record.

You have every reason to apply to schools in the T10 - 15.

Write good essays, and speak persuasively in the interviews, and you should make it.
