Hey there Joel,
I’d love to help you out but without more info it’s gonna be hard. Where do you work? What do you do? How quickly have you advanced? Do you have any leadership? What are your great achievements? Do you have notable community service or extra curriculars? Which school did you graduate from?

All of these will play important roles in your evaluation.

I think in general your application list should fall in the 20-50 range. But If you provide me more detail, it will help.

Best,
Jon
