Hello all,
My name is Patrick and I am currently applying for Master's programs (in Management) in Europe. The top 2 schools I am looking at are ESSEC and University of St. Gallen.
I would like to get feedback on my profile and input as to whether I have a good chance at getting into any of these 2 schools or not.
My profile:
Graduated in May 2015 from Saint Louis University with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. My concentration was International Business & International Studies with a minor in French. GPA was 3.63/4.00 (Cum Laude honours).
Since, then I have been working as an Account Manager at a global Japanese motor company called Nidec (1.5 years work experience).
I am half Syrian, half American and can speak Arabic and French on top of speaking English.
My GMAT score was pretty low, 620, but to be honest it was very hard for me to study as I often work on call at Nidec, tutor on the side and take care of my family who live with me at the moment.
Does anyone think I have a good chance at getting into any of these schools?
Appreciate any help!

Is it important for you to go this year? I would strongly recommend that you get more work experience first. And if possible put in your absolute best effort with the GMAT and put everything else on the back burner. You really want to go to the best school you can to leverage this investment and so if 620 is the best you can do so be it but I would put this project on hold to make sure that is the actual case.

Thank you for your reply Farrell. I am a bit confused about what you said. Most masters programs I've seen require little or no work experience after undergrad. I am applying for autumn semester of 2017 which by then, I would have completed 2 full years of work experience. Is the admission selection really that heavily weighted towards the gmat score?
