MBA recommendation letters are one of the most misunderstood parts of the application process. Many applicants focus on choosing the most senior recommender — when what actually matters is specificity, credibility, and examples of impact.

So my target school all along has been the Foster School of Business at the University of Washington. I live in the greater Seattle area and ideally would like to stay here permanently after school. I took the GMAT yesterday and exceeded my expectations and hopes. I scored a 710- V40 Q48. Needless to say I was very excited to improve on my cold score of 600 a little over a month ago!
I was hoping for some suggestions of other schools to consider. Some more info on me:
Communications degree from a regional state University (GPA 3.36)
GMAT 710
Division 1 football player
Prestigious internship at the State Capitol my Sr. year
Did a cycle of campaign work immediately after graduating and then went on to work for the largest private Public Relations firm in the world (promoted once)
Currently a manager at a small business
Any thoughts? Thanks for the help! I've only really imagined UW but figured I should cast a wider net...

Oh yeah! A 710! And division1 football! They are gonna LOVE you, dude if you can serve them up a beauty of an application.
I would love to hear more about your small business and work experience at this PR firm (how many years? any leadership? greatest achievements?), as ell as any other nice extras (Church? Other religious stuff? Volunteer work? Extra currics? and so on...?). Tell me a bit about your goals too,
And I think you should be good to go for Top 20 schools. Exactly which and where will depend on your answers to the above questions.
Looking forward to hearing from you, dude!
