Hi there
I'm in a bit of a (good) pickle and was hoping you could give me some advice. My background is essential (at matriculation fall 2017)
-25M
-27 months work ex as a project manager at an oil refinery, total portfolio size of 6MM
-3.15 mechanical engineering undergrad from a Big Ten School
-About three years as a division one track and field athlete along with starting a drone building club and hunting club. Currently involved in my church and and in a river clean up volunteer organization
- before yesterday 720, but now a 780 50Q 49V
My problem is mostly that with this big bump up in score I'm not sure where I'm competitive at now. I'm currently applying to Tuck and Ross, but should I be working on other apps for R 2 with the short amount of time left? Is stanford even a possibility? I sincerely appreciate any help, Thanks!

Hi there,
I believe that my colleague responded to your inquiry on WSO but I can re-iterate her feedback. Your score does make you more competitive (congrats on the improvement!) but I wouldn't say it should overhaul your application strategy. With that said, if you have capacity to add a stretch school, it would be worth a shot in my experience. Regardless, emphasizing your leadership experience in your relatively short professional tenor will be super important through your resume, essays, etc. Best of luck to you!
Kindly,
Melody
