Hey Paul!
I just took my 2nd GMAT and wanted yo know what you thought of my prospects.
Sex: Male
Age: 26 (27 Fall 08)
Nationality: Puertorican
Undergrad Degree/GPA: Double Major - (Finance/CIS), Minor - Philosophy, 3.5 GPA from mid tier northeast school.
GMAT: 700 (2nd attempt). Awaiting AWA score.
Work Experience: 4 years at litigation/strategment consulting company. Manage the reporting/analysis section of a long-term client engagement. Most recently managed all aspects of 4 client conversions from legacy systems to our propriety network.
Extra: Minority scholarship at undergrad, minority internship (Inroads), President of fraternity, Student council two years. Currently volunteer a local soup kitchen on a regular basis. Manage office intramurals. Point of contact for an ovarian cancer charity.
Ambitions: Move more into a strategy based consulting role.
Targets: UCLA, NYU, USC, Texas, and Georgetown.
UCLA and NYU are my two main wishes, but I would be happy with any of the above. How important is it that I'm puertorican and what influence will that have on my application?
Let me know if you if you need any more information. Thanks!

ezd222,
My apologies for missing this post earlier. Your profile looks strong to me, pretty much blemish free. I can think you can be optimistic at all of these schools. Your Puerto Rican background is a major asset for you. Without it I would describe you as "competitive"; with it, you are in my "optimistic" category. It essentially makes you an Underrepresented Minority and thereby subject to some preferential treatment in the admissions process. The fact that you don't appear to "need" preferential treatment (i.e., your profile looks good as is) just makes you all the more attractive to schools.
Hope this helps,
