Thank you very much for your time.
I am currently working at a large pharmaceutical company in the area of marketing/analytics.
Prior to that, I was a strategy/management consultant to the pharmaceutical sector for 7 years.
I graduated with a 3.1 GPA from MIT majoring in Chemical Engineering in 2002. Took the GMAT and scored a 710--50 Quant and 38 Verbal (breakdown may be off, but total score is correct).
Wondering about my candidacy for Fall of 2012. I know that I am an older candidate and I will apply part time as a safety.
Thank you again.

Nice to hear from another MIT alum! I was course 15 at MIT before I got my MBA at Wharton.
What schools are you targeting? What consulting firm did you work for?
Depending on your target schools, you could have a good shot. That said, you are older than average so that will not help. How much leadership do you have at work? People underneath you?
These things will all impact your candidacy, as well as what you do outside of work. Feel free to contact me privately if you don't want to publish answers to these questions, but they will help me give you a better evaluation.
