Dear paul ,
I would highly appreciate if you can advice me on my following profile.
asses my weaknesses and strenghtes and asses my chioice of schools and highlight my chances there.
My list of schools in order:
1) London Business School
2) Warwick Business Scool
3) Emperial Tanaka Business School
4)Vlerick Leuven Business School " Belgium)
I am Egyptian ( Africa) white male ,32 years old , Graduated from one of the best public universities in Egypt with 2.3 GPA( satisfactory). my major is in accounting this is because i used to play Karate in the Egyptian national team and as a trainer in one of the biggest Egyptian clubs and moreover i used to work a part time job in the same time.
My work experience is 8 + working in the field of sales and marketing
Starting from a local number one commercial bank in Egypt and the first petrochemical factory in egypt
to number one insurance company in the world for three years , i recieved more than two or three awards of top producing sales person and after being promoted for 3 times in the three years got the best team manager award.
Then I moved and switched directions to the Hotel industry where i became the corporate director of sales of the number one hotel brand in the world here in Egypt.
Unfortunately the structural change that this hotel was undergoing and thats why they originally hired me , didnt match wuth my sudden outbreack of an old back injury ( sincei was playing Karate) that forced me to do an operation and being away from work at least for three months . so i had to resigne from this job.
Once i am back from my surgery 3 months after i left my job , i was hired as head of business development team in one of the very unique and the first geomarketing companyin Egypt and i am currently there.
i am a member of the young business men Egyptian committee where we offer to all the industrial ,service and commercial segments help by raising different issues about business atmosphere and dfifferent stratigic issues to the top decision makers in the egyptian Gov . to the top.
I believe i can get a Gmat score of 650 to 700
what are my chances and what do u recommend plz?
Thanks

yezz,
Your strength is the distinctiveness of your profile. Not only the fact that you are Egyptian but the national karate team story and your career experiences. Your weaknesses are your age, your GPA, and the possibility that they will see your career progress as being unfocused. I recommend that you emphasize the job+karate factors that impacted your grades and any leadership stories you have and make them see how your career experiences fit together. If you do this, and you give them focused and savvy-sounding post-MBA goals then you have a chance at London if you get in the high 600s or into the 700s. If you do all these things and get in the mid-600s you will still have a decent chance at Warwick, Imperial, and Vlerick.
Good luck!

Thanks a lot for your valuable advice it really do clear many things to me.
I dont wanna soud demanding but if you can give me a sencere clear opinion about the following ........you will save me a lot of wasted time trying to figure out how to approach my profile.
I see my carreer as a sales and busineess development proffesional.
starting from my early days as a sales person till i am managing teams of more than 15 sales personal.
I regard My proffession as to organize , plan motivate and coach and get results ( Money).
My point of view was to grap different experiences of selling and promoting different products and services in different fields(Industrial - financial services - Insurance - Hospitality - and finally consultancy.)
so from my personal point of view my carreer was sales and Business development focused.
How do you see this sencere point of view is it weak in the eyes of an admission officer.......Help
