Hi I'm a 25 year old white male from NYC. I'm a CPA who did roughly 2 years Big 4 auditing and has spent the last two years in financial services/insurance broking internal audit for a fortune 200 company. I travel extensively for my company, performing audits in multiple foreign countries.
I scored 720 GMAT (Q47 V41 IR 8)on my first attempt last week. I am considering retaking as I feel I can hit 750. My main motivation in scoring higher is the hope that it will land me a large scholarship at a top 20 mba program. Is this likely?
My extra curriculars are a bit weak. I play rec sports and was in a leadership role in a fraternity in college.
I attended seton hall university on a full scholarship (SAT 99th percentile) for undergrad. (3.4 GPA, accounting degree)
My target schools are pretty much anything top 20 that would give me a large scholarship. Duke seems to give out a decent amount.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

A white male with a 750 is pretty rare, so I think you are thinking correctly that it could result in some scholarship offers. Not sure if you are applying in round two or three, but most scholarships and fellowships are handed out in round one. You might get lucky and receive some fellowship offers in round three.
