I'm trying to mix my selection into target schools and a few safety schools, but I'm not sure if any of my choices would qualify as a safety (or even target) school considering my profile and specially my age.
Both my recommenders are strong. One is my director and the other is a former boss and senior manager of Coca-Cola.
All the best,
