Thanks very much for your help! Would like to figure out what my possibilities are for US Business school including some burning questions:
Demographics: 26-year-old East Asian guy growing up in Pan Western Europe country (Germany/Netherlands/France) from 8 years old, with European passport. --> Question: Would I be put into the Asian pool of applicants or Western European pool of applicants for Business schools? How would this impact my success rate?
Undergrad: Top 3 University in Country, Top 1 Uni for Economics (7,2 in Quant Finance/Statistics)
Master: Same University, (7,0 in Quant Finance)
Part of community for diversity and inclusion in university
Experience: 1,5 years at Big 4 valuations, 1 year Accenture MC (Planning to apply to business school after having 2 years experience here), so 3,5 years experience in total.
No extracurricular activity --> Question: How big of a deal is this? Would it be very beneficial to start with some volunteering work now?
GMAT:720
What would my chances at the following schools?
1. Yale
2. Harvard
3. Wharton
4. Cornell
5. Columbia
Would I have more chance for European Business schools? (e.g INSEAD, LBS)?
Many thanks for your time,

Thanks for sharing your profile. You have a good background and given your passport and extensive time being raised in europe I would assume this is the bucket with which you will fall in
1. Yale - Good
2. Harvard - Tough
3. Wharton - Tough
4. Cornell -Good
5. Columbia - Solid
I would say no extras is a big deal so not sure when you are applying but if you can work to correct this that would be helpful
