Hello,
I am a male /Jamaican citizens with Permanent Resident Status /black/28/Private Wealth Management.
Academics : Top 35 ranked University (according to US News and World Report)
Major: Finance & Economics; Minored in philosophy
GPA: 3.34
GMAT: 650 (43Q; 36V)
Certification: CFA level 1; candidate for level 2
Extra Curricular : In college, I founded my own Jamaican Club on campus. I also held leadership positions in various clubs on campus such as the treasurer position in National Association of Black engineers Club.
Post College I have dedicated my time to one meaningful organization. I have been mentoring under-represented minorities to secure full time offers from leading finance firms on Wall Street. I work with an organization that recruits talentented minorites and I work with those talentented individuals develop the core skills needed to do well in their respective internship positions.
Work experience :
I will try to simplify:
After graduating from college, I spent 3 years in Private Wealth Management at one of the largest Wall Street Wealth Management Firms. I then left and spent six months in Equity Research at the same company. After six months in equity research, my father became ill and I left the position to help my parents manage the family business in Jamaica. After 1 year of helping my family to revive the business, I am now back in Private Wealth Management with another leading wealth management firm in new york. My experience with my family business helped me to realize my career goal.
Career Objective:My professional goal is to provide financing opportunities to entrepreneurs in the Caribbean, and impact the economic development in the region. I want focus in micro-finance area of finance.
Short : I plan to work for an organization that promotes small businesses and focuses on Business Development in emerging economies.
Long : I plan to establish a Small Business Development Bankthat advises and provides capital to proven entrepreneurial organizations.
My Target B-Schools
a) Tuck
b) Columbia
c) Wharton
d) NYU
e) Chicago
f) Yale
Can you let me know how competitive I am at the listed schools? Do you know how the admissions commitee evaluate candidate with permanent resident status?
Thanks in advance.

Your academics, especially the GMAT, are low for your target programs. However, your URM status, Caribbean background, strong work experience and community service, and interesting, credible goal could carry the day for you. Your essays, recs, resume, and interviews are going to be very important.
Have you already applied? Or are you planning to apply R3 or next year?
Best,
Linda
