Dear Stacy,
I am a big fan of your site and services. I did take your consulting services for my Harvard application and loved the support, but I knew I was being too optimistic with HBS (no invite). Can you please give me a couple of target schools and a couple of reach schools I should be applying to with this profile:
Undergrad: CGPA 9.08/10.0, Class rank 1, "Best Student of the Institute" award from a top 15 institute in India
Pre-MBA work-ex: 3 years of software development at one of the best technology MNCs (think Microsoft/ Google/ Yahoo), 1 promotion, 2 awards
1st MBA: Indian Institute of Management (top 2 b school in India), CGPA : 7.22/9.0, top 13% of class
Post MBA work-ex: less than a year in the advisory arm of a Big 4
ECs:
-Established a gym at workplace for my colleagues, founded the gym committee and increased gym memberships by 80% in 3 years
- Decent/ above average success in dramatics, singing, sports; active member of Consulting Club in college
- Very less ECs during undergrad - won a couple of bodybuilding competitions
GMAT: 740(97%ile) - 50 on Q, 41 on V, 4.5 AWA
Post MBA Goals - International Strategy Consulting at a top tier firm
Reasons for 2nd MBA - The usual: international experience etc.
