Hi there, thanks for reaching out. Your entrepreneurial experience is definitely a plus, especially if the company was a desirable target for a top VC. Good that you stayed on with the acquirer too. Have you thought about your post MBA goals? That will be an important part of your story, to show you've thought deeply about how an MBA will help you. On the academic side, your GMAT is great and right on target for top schools. Your GPA is a bit low though the technical degree and top ranking helps. The other challenge I see is the lower amount of work experience, most successful HBS applicants we've seen have about 5 or even 6 years experience. That plus GSB will be reaches, but I think you're in competitive range for the other schools, especially if you nail the story in your essays!
Good luck!
Kate

Thanks Kate! Yep. I’m actually currently working on a new venture now after ~2 years, and I’d like to continue this through my MBA journey, using the classes, network and other program resources to help guide my venture building process (:
