Do I have a solid chance at getting into a top-7 school if I apply to all of them?

Edit: perhaps should have mentioned I am a white American male.

Hey TryingToPass!

Your GMAT score and GPA place you well within reach of an M7 school. However, once you pass these "thresholds" for academic achievement, the focus turns to your story, leadership experience, and hirability.

What are your goals post-MBA? I would focus your efforts on the particular schools that match these goals instead of trying to get 10 applications out for R1. Your background and goals may be an amazing fit for one school and not so much for others. It may seem like very high scores would make you immune to rejection, but fit is still very important for each school and largely drives admissions decisions amongst similar applicants.

Yes, you have a solid chance of admission to a top school. If you'd like to have a longer conversation feel free to reach out at [email protected]!

Best,
