GMAT:700
GPA:3.89 B.S. in EE from UT-Austin
work exp:
-3 years in semiconductor industry - test engineering in DRAM/FLASH memory manufacturing. There is some sort of leadership experience here in the fact that engineering has to lead manufacturing to make sure operations run smoothly.
-don't really have people directly under me or reporting to me, but led several teams to work on various test time reduction projects, equipment efficiency improvement etc.
-tool group owner of 70+ systems; in charge of process, device and I/F programs for all tools as well as new tool installation/ramp-up. currently working on new tool ramp-up in brand new 300 mm FLASH facility that was built about a year ago
-there are a lot of little things here that i can talk about like the responsibility we have as far as tool ownership goes, 24/7 coverage (getting paged in the middle of the night many times) and being charge of a particular process
-generally it's pretty stressful and a super fast-paced environment where a little mistake costs several thousand dollars or much much more.
extras:
-fundraising chair of habitat young professionals; currently organizing a fundraising event for austin habitat for humanity to try to raise 60K to fund the building of a house. this is where the vast majority of my leadership experience comes from--i lead a group of 15-20 people to organize the gala, acquire sponsors and sell tickets. im really passionate about this and easily spend 10-15 hours a week on this or more. im getting more and more involved with habitat for humanity and later on will head up the leadership council of austin habitat for humanity raising more money...
-was part of an emerging leaders class (had to apply and was accepted); it was mostly about being a leader in the community
-volunteered with some other things here and there
im going to pursue the entrepreneurial route so i will highlight that experience....im just getting started on some entrepreneurial pursuits. how important is it to actually have started a company or real experience in order to be eligible for a program at a top school?
that is my eventual goal....

gt7er,
Your Habitat leadership is a real life-saver for you because your general profile will not strike them as terribly unusual (as you know). The leaders class and of course all your people-leadership/coordination stories from work should also be thrown into the pot. Mention to the schools everything about your career pace that is atypical, 'fast track.'
No, you don't need to have started a company to present yourself successfully as entrepreneurially focused MBA applicant. You *do* need to have shown 'entrepreneurial behavior' in multiple parts of your life (e.g., innovation, risk-taking, taking initiative, leadership, etc.)
Hope this helps.
