Hello all,
I am hoping to attend NYU Sterns Langone (part time) program in the Fall 2007. My credentials are as follows:
* 24 year old caucasian male
* 690 GMAT Score
* BS in Computer Science, 3.4 GPA from a very challenging engineering school with a great local reputation
* 3 years full time experience in IT (Business Analysis) for a top-tier investment bank ascending quickly through roles of increasing responsibility.
* 2.5 years internship doing systems engineering at a well known consumer electronics manufacturer.
I believe my academic history and work experience qualify me, but I have a few concerns.
* Skewed GMAT grade. My verbal was far superior to my quantitative (95 percentile vs 67 percentile). Odd considering my engineering background.
* Lack of extracurricular leadership activities. I worked 20+ hours per week during college so I had little time to pursue such activities.
What are my chances?
Thanks!
Joe

Joe,
Sorry for the delayed reply. I've been on the road. I think you have a decent shot at NYU part-time. If you think the GMAT score was an anomaly and that you could raise the quant score with little effort then maybe consider taking it a second time. As for the extracurricular, if you had to work in college to fund your education then that fact will probably get you off the hook, but you will still need to account for extracurriculars since college and you will want to give them your best stories showing team involvement and well-roundedness. But even with weak extracurriculars/community, I think your chances at NYU part-time are decent.
Good luck,
