2nd Attempt 750 (Math 50 Verbal 40) Writing 4 IR 5
Undergrad - One of big 10 State univ. (Finance)

On the surface it looks like you have a decent chance at those schools. While the writing and IR scores will make it more challenging, I would still advise applying to those programs especially if you add one or two other programs that are not quite as competitive just as a backup.

How have you performed at your job vs. competition? Your raises and promotion path/speed will make a difference in apps as well as your extra-curricular activities.

Also, feel free to send me an email to scott@personalmbacoach.com or a PM, but what company do you work at?

Okay dude,
So your GMAT is totally awesome, your grades are great! So you are set on your way for Top 10. Now whether it's HBS or another Top 10 will depend on things that I don't know about - like the DETAIL of your work experience - your achievements, promotions, leadership, initiatives, a well as the other things like extra curricular activities, volunteer work, sports, community service, and so on.

Feel free to drop on by, filling out our form here for a Free Consultation: https://bit.ly/mbafcGC

Best,

Hey skh84,

You really have a very good GMAT Score. Your academics, GMAT score and number of work experience are good enough to apply for B-Schools like Harvard, Kellogg, Wharton and Chicago Booth. You are at perfect stage of applying for MBA, 3-5 years of work experience is what most of the US B-Schools look for. If you can share your work profile in detail, we can let you know your chances of getting admission in a top business schools and can suggest you safe and stretch B-Schools accordingly.

You may also gauge your chances of getting admission in B-Schools you have mentioned above by trying "Your Chances for B-School" tool https://bit.ly/1rRCod5

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
