Education: 1 year local school (deans list, 3.5 GPA), transferred to top 20 university (grades suffered due to three year internship was originally supposed to be one year but they asked me back) 3.0 or 2.9-something final GPA. Bachelors in history (pointed out history/academia was not right for me and I do better in business sphere)
Work experience: 6 months as real estate agent, promoted to firms development team after half a year (fastest promotion in firm’s history), $70 million in revenue brought in from properties I’ve overseen, 7 people report directly to me (at the firm since 2017)
Extracurriculars: volunteer at food pantry every week, headed and organized a covid fundraiser
Additional info: first gen college grad, non native English speaker
334 GRE
Peer reviewed essays was told by several they were very good
Can I crack an M7/S10 or should I try lower?

Hello, orosano. My first thought on reading your post was that you ought to consider posting in the Ask Admissions Consultants forum. These experts can provide more informed guidance than can regular members—it is their job! That said, to my eye, the low GPA is something you will have to explain in the right way, and I am curious how your real estate experience ties in with your business interests. (Why business school?) Six months is not a lot of work experience when the average at many top schools is around five years. (There are always exceptions, but exceptions are typically exceptional in some way... That was a fun sentence to write.) A 334 is a solid GRE® score. The breakdown might be important, depending on the area of business you intend to study. Also, make sure all schools you intend to apply to not only accept but also do not disfavor GRE® scores to GMAT™ scores.
I imagine an admissions expert will have more questions for you, but those are my thoughts on the information you have provided. Good luck with the next step in the application process.
