Hello all,
Im not really sure where to start or how you do this but I was given a suggestion to do this since I look to apply for MBA in September - October.
Anyway, I am 24 years old from Tel Aviv Israel. I grew up in Israel until I was 16. When I was 16 I moved by myself to the U.S in order to further athletics and education.
I did Junior and Senior year of high school in a prep school, finished with a 3.2GPA. After high school I went to play semi pro ice hockey in order to get recruited for college in a hope to get a scholarship, during that time I did some community service as well. After my second year I ended up getting recruited to a school in Philadelphia. In the summer of 2017 I was granted an elite athlete status from the Israeli Army, which was basically an exemption. In my last year of minor pro hockey after the season ended I had to go through training camp at the army for 6 weeks. In July 2017 I finished my duties in the army then came back to the U.S. Officially I was released from the army this past October(I had to go back in order to be officially released). At school I major in Finance with a minor in Data Analytics. Right now I have a 3.76 GPA and I will be graduating in December 2020. I hope to work somewhere from January to August then in August go back for my MBA in Real Estate.

Hi, and thanks for writing! Since you're graduating from college in 2020, I'd gain at least 3 years of full-time work experience before applying to bschool. The average number of years of work experience that full-time MBA students have is 4-6 years (not including internships). Over that time period, you'll want to show strong leadership and teamwork skills and good progression in your roles and skillset. I'd also take that time to reflect on your career goals so that you can explain them in your application (why real estate)? and talk about how your roles and experiences to date have influenced your decision to get an MBA.
I hope that helps a bit! Best of luck and definitely get in touch with mbaMission a couple years down the road to discuss your candidacy and strategy in detail.
