My background: female 33, Chinese. I graduated from top chinese univ. with double degree in ME and CS.
and had a master degree (GPA 3.7) from UCLA in CS. After graduation, i was a producer in game companies and film companies, now Sr. program manager in top hi-tech company.
I got 710 recently in GMAT test.
I wonder what is my chance to apply for top b-schools? Probably chance is pretty slim, i guess..... :(
Thanks ahead!

If you can show progression and leadership at work, and you aim for programs that have higher average age at matriculation or for EMBA programs, then your chances are good at top business schools -- unless your GMAT score was very lop-sided. Was it?

Thanks! Linda. My GMAT is 710, good but not perfect 760 or 780. I heared these days, top b-schools are targeting younger applicants, but i have no intention of applying for neither EMBA nor part time. So my case will be difficult right? I wonder applicants like me should target which schools?

Thanks a lot!

As I said earlier, aim for programs with higher average age at matriculation. HOw many years of full-time work experience do you have? What do you want to do post MBA? 'll suggest some programs after you respond.

Best,
Linda
