Education:
28-year-old male Chinese-born Canadian with an undergrad in Canada and a US Juris Doctor.
Undergrad GPA: 3.38
JD GPA: 3.123 Tax Concentration GPA:3.5
Multiple club leadership roles throughout undergrad and law school & kept connected with the alumni network, participated as a peer mentor for various clubs.
Working experience:
Licensed US California attorney. Three years (Till next August) specializing in tax law, practiced M&A tax in a Big Four accounting firm post-law school, now looking to switch to consulting for better global mobility. Team located in the Bay area, so high visibility tech engagements (in the multi-billion dollar range for deal sizes) with management experience of international teams (foreign tax teams). Personally led smaller engagements in the 20-50M dollar deal size range as a senior (leadership & rare for our practice). Already got into Ivey with a GMAT waiver (Canadian, hence the school choice; Ivey was my dream school during undergrad and high school). Submitted an application at USC also with a waiver, now preparing for INSEAD and Haas.
Planning to take GFE on Nov. 7 (aim above 65% recommended score from INSEAD). Not much time to prep, considering the timeline, so I assume the new test would be the best way to go.
Assuming a GFE score above the 65 percentile recommended by INSEAD on their website (for what is worth), can you give me any feedback on what are my chances of getting in INSEAD, UCB or USC? I'm leaning heavily towards INSEAD and Ivey considering they are 1 year. Not applying to other 1 year mba programs in the US because recruiting is not used to it yet.
Thanks!
