Orthopaedic surgeon + 690score help please! [#permalink] New post   23 Dec 2016, 14:02
Hi everbody!

Ive just taken the gmat and Ive got a 690.
I am 28 years old and 5 years of experience but I want to change my prh doing an MBA, so I could work on a big pharma/ strategic consulting / healthcare venture capital.

What do you think could be the best US university for me (MIT,Coñumbia...)( with a 690score)

Thank you so much!!

Hi - thanks for writing! To be able to suggest potential schools, I'd need some more info including:
1. where do you want to be geographically after graduation?
2. what type of environment are you seeking - urban/suburban/rural?
3. What are your thoughts on desired culture/class size?

These are some of the main factors to consider when selecting an MBA program. It sounds like you'd want to be in a program that's strong in healthcare - Duke Fuqua comes to mind, as well as Wharton (though your GMAT score is on the lower end for WH, it's not the only factor considered of course)

Hi! thanks for answering!

1) after graduation LATAM o USA would be great for me! I am from Europe, but I don't mind to spend a long time in NORTH/SOUTH AMERICA.
2) I would like to study in an urban area.

I´ve read about MIT, Harvard, Kellogg and Columbia.. and all of them are considered good for MBA-healthcare programs. That´s why I´m a mess and why I am looking for help.

thank you very much!

Hi - yes, you're right that those programs are strong for healthcare! Another program that you should consider is Fuqua, as they're quite known for healthcare. Fuqua might be slightly more within reach as well, as MIT/Harvard/Kellogg/Columbia are somewhat more competitive.

Hope that helps!

I think you should search for people who have similar profile as yours and have gone for MBA. This can be done through Linkedin. Most of the people from other professions would not be able to suggest you best in this direction.
Hope that helps.
