[#permalink]

Hey, need some advice about school selection. This is a bit long so bear with me.
Academics -
• UG University of Melbourne- Bsc. mechanical engineering 66% avg.
• 750 GMAT
• Won quite a few academic competitions
Work experience -
• 2 years working for an online retail store startup – part-time, during my bachelors.
• Total of 6 months of volunteering (spread out in different organizations)
Speak 4 languages fluently: French, Italian, Spanish and English
Special factors: French and Italian but I have Lived in India for 4 years, Singapore for 1 year and Australia for 3 years.
What I want from the degree:
Prestige, good alumni network
Allows me to get a job in a top consulting firm
No preference on location. I’m currently looking at HEC’s and LBS’s MiM.
Any other school you would recommend? What are my odds in the ones I’m currently looking at?
What are your thoughts on double degrees? Like HEC-Yale? Are they more competitive than the normal MiM?

Hi there! Thanks for reaching out! Your GMAT is definitely going to put you in a strong position when it comes to applications and your work experience during undergrad will help differentiate you as well. In terms of schools, the double degree programs programs are not necessarily more competitive but regardless I think you have a good shot at top programs anyway. You're right on track with HEC & LBS. I'd also consider St Gallen, IE, ESSEC, ESADE, and Rotterdam.
Good luck to you!
