Hi everyone
I am looking for an admission expert to evaluate my profile please.
I am a 29 year old woman and I am an Iranian-Canadian citizen. Graduated from UBC-Chemical Engineering, GPA 3.3. I am currently working in Iran as a Growth Hacking Manager at one of the top notch and biggest start up companies in Iran. The company is similar to Uber and staffs around 1000 people. I have 6 people( mix of junior analysts and senior team leads) reporting to me. I have 5 years work experience. I have been in this organization for 3 years and for 1 year I worked as an Investment Analyst in the same organization. before this job I was working at another 2 companies in Iran as a consultant. And before I move back to Iran (2015) I worked as a researcher, published a paper, etc for one year in Canada. I am the head of Women In Management club in the company and my hobbies are tennis, paragliding, travel, poker.
I am interested in applying to MIT-round 1 2021 intake
If there is anything else I should mention please let me know. I am specifically writing this to know what GMAT score will be good enough for me to target.

milad90 - While startup work experience is good, sometimes, MIT can face challenges in fully contextualizing it. Therefore, please focus on career growth and impact within the organization to indicate your work and potential.
- Your GPA at 3.3 is below the MIT average, although the work you are doing and the overall diversity in your profile is excellent.
- Target a GMAT score of 720+ to be in contention, and look at a timeline of around June to get it done, to have some time for a retake if required as well.
Hope this helps. Feel free to come back with more queries as needed.
