Hi
boreas93,
Happy to provide some guidance here! It looks like you're coming from Turkey, is that accurate? Coming from an underrepresented applicant pool helps your candidacy, however you still need to demonstrate that you're an attractive candidate. Check out this blog post,
Is a 2.7 GPA a showstopper for an MBA? for some additional insight.
You're accurate that the undergrad GPA hurts your candidacy, but the GMAT and MiM are helpful. You'll need to write an optional essay to address the low GPA and demonstrate that you're a different student now than you were during undergrad. You can cite your MiM experience to demonstrate that.
Another thing that is important to show you're an attractive candidate is to show strong professional experience. Accelerated promotions, impactful work, leadership, international exposure, etc are all helpful. You can write about this in your essays and your recommenders should do the same.
I'd be happy to provide more guidance - feel free to schedule a
consultation and we can discuss more specifics.
