Hi,

I am planning to apply to various MBA programs in 2014 or 2015

My profile:
Nationality: Hong Kong
GMAT: 700(Q-49,V-35, AWA 4).
Univeristy: University of Hong Kong + half year exchange studies in Australia
Qualification : Bachelor of Economics and Finance - 2nd lower honor (GPA:2.7/4)
Professional Qualification: Qualified CPA + Chartered CFA
Work Experience : (at the time of application) 5 Years with 3 year audit experience in big 4 as senior + 2 year corporate finance (IPO, M&A) experience in a china securities house as assistant manager/manager

Extra Curricular : Vice Chairman of Investment Club in University

Please evaluate my profile for
HKUST
CEIBS
OXFORD SAID
CAMBRIDGE JUDGE
MIT SLOAN
Chicago Booth
New York Stern

Thanks!!!!

Assuming no major changes in the MBA market in the next 2-3 years, you would be competitive at HKUST, CEIBS, Oxford, and Cambridge. MIT Sloan, Booth and Stern would be stretches.

Best,
Linda

Is my verbal score(35, 74 percentile) enough for the mba in oxford, cambridge. I heard that some mba in UK/US prefer a verbal score with at least 80 percentile.

Moreover, does my AWA score (4) hurt a lot? do I need to retake gmat again??

You would have a better chance at acceptance at the U.S. schools than the ones you listed initially, but it is really tough to say what's going to be in three years.
