Hi,
I would really appreciate some feedback on my profile. I am looking to apply in ~3 years. I think that is when I would feel professionally, personally and also Financially ready for an MBA. I am interested in Wharton, HBS, Kellogg, Sloan, Stern, Stanford, Fuqua, Tuck and Haas.

Ethnicity: North African/Arab
Country of residence: Canada (Toronto)
GMAT: Haven’t taken the test yet. But I am willing to invest the time and resources I need to get a +700 score.
Education:
- Undergraduate: Top Canadian School. Honors BSc. Physics. GPA: 3.12
- Graduate 1: MSc in Earth Sciences Good Canadian School. Pending Thesis top grades on courses completed
- Graduate 2: MA in Applied Mathematics/ Financial Mathematics. GPA: ~3.8
Work Experience:
- 2 years as a research assistant/Teaching Assistant in my lab during Graduate1. Was elected a team lead of a group of 4 T.As delivering course lectures/labs to > 70 students
- 2 months research assistant in research facility in Japan (fully funded)
- 3 month internship as business intelligence consultant for large Canadian Telecom

Future Career goals:

- Secondary goals would be to work in Tech or Consulting.
A few Questions I have are:
- How would applying to an MBA program be different when I am a little older (32 years old) ?
- Would it help if I use my African citizenship ? Are African candidates more competitive?
- I am a little concerned about my relatively lower undergrad GPA. Will that be off-set by my higher grad GPAs & potential high performance in GMAT?
- Most of my Business school choices are M7. Are these reasonable choices? Are there school that are better suited for my career choices and profile?
Finally, thank you very much for reading. I would appreciate any help I can get.
