Archived Wharton Discussion
Hi there,
You've stumbled upon an old discussion from our Wharton Forum
that's now outdated and has been archived. No more replies are possible here.
Interested in current discussions? Feel free to dive into our dedicated Wharton Forum
for all fresh things related to the Wharton MBA program.
Thank you for sharing your profile. Starting with the stats, your undergrad GPA is good. The average GRE score for Wharton and Columbia is around 324, and yours is 326. So, with this GRE score and overall application, you stand a chance at the b-school. On the work front, your work experience seems good. I can see some leadership experiences and impact in your work profile. You have some stint of international experience as well. Try to demonstrate this experience in such a way that it will give your profile a global outlook.
Your post-MBA goals are aligned with your previous work experience. Make sure you connect the dots and explain how an MBA can help you fill the gaps in your profile and achieve your goals. In addition, you may want to read an article on how to differentiate yourself in your MBA application essays; you will get the knowledge that will help you increase your chances of being admitted into the desired Business school.
Overall, your profile is good. A 326 GRE is good, in my opinion, as long as you can bring quantitative skills to your profile, which I believe you have, and GRE alone cannot be the deciding factor. Your overall profile and how you present it plays an important role. If you’d like, we are happy to hop on a call with you sometime this week to discuss your profile in length and further chances to the b-schools. Feel free to book a free session with us as per your convenience.
