Thanks for any input. Also what other schools would be good fits. Especially for post Mba goals in consulting. Hopefully in the it and security field. .
Hey there dude,
I like your profile so far! I mean an amazing GMAT + Military in Sigint is a veeeeery good start. I think you can apply anywhere in the Top20 you'd like and have a shot - but of course you should choose schools that fit your goals (HBS would for example, maybe Georgetown, Tepper).
Other than that: Are you still in the Military? What are you doing? If it was better for you, you know you could apply R3. I mean military folks are one of the few profiles that the schools keep their eyes open for in R3.
Hope this helps, and if you have any further questions, just drop a line,
Best,
Jon
