Hello,
Having a bit of a "different" profile (aka, Female, european doctor just finishing my residency, family business), I have trouble assessing my profile for a MBA in the US and understand if I should retake the GMAT and postpone my applications to round 2 (it could improve, but not by much-710-720 would already be a biiiig jump). I would love to have some feedback on my application and understand better where I could improve.
Schools of interests :
- Columbia (J-intake), Insead
- HBS/Stanford (could/should I try ?)
Background and nationality : French, speaking english and spanish, international exposure with 10y in Belgium and multiple internships abroad (Senegal, Cambodia ...)
Undergrad Information : BA in medicine (regional university) with cum laude, MD in medicine (regional University) with magna cum laude, Residency in general practice with summa cum laude (thesis with summa cum laude, finalist for an award for the best thesis).
GMAT: 700 (V38, Q47, AWA 6, IR 4)
Female, 29 yo doctor, finishing in September my GP residency in Belgium. I worked for 4 years during my residency (1y in an hospital : infectious disease ward during covid-19, 2 years in a group practice and addiction center/family planing + research, 1 full-time year of research -not PHD-.). I worked mostly as a GP with patients with low socio-economics backgrounds or minorities, mental health and addiction disorders. Got a great thesis (with impact on practice) and was awarded a position as a full time research assistant in a primary care research unit for my last year of residency (speaker at international congresses + teaching master students).
Other mandates : Board member of family business in pharmaceutical, board of the fondation
Leadership :
- Undergrad/grad : President of the biggest student association of my Uni, direct/indirect reporting : 25
- Post-grad : co-founded a cultural international non profit ( in 4 cities in Europe, expanding) providing 3 types of free events for local and expats to promote multiculturalism, freedom of speech and personal growth. Attendance : 100-200p/events, 3 events/months for the past 3 years.
- Direct and indirect reporting : 24 international volunteers
Rewards : won local funding prizes, recently joined a non-profit incubator, podcast was selected for a podcast festival.
Community and others :
- cfr leadership
- mental health advocate (worked in addiction centers, refugee centers)
Hobbies : passionate about arts, traveled to +48 countries, half-marathon runner
Post MBA goals : consulting in healthcare/pharmaceutical or big Pharma (business development) before taking a CEO position at family business in the pharmaceutical industry
Thank you very much in advance for your honest feedback, looking forward to reading you !

Being a doctor and having a family business is really a diverse profile and B schools usually appreciate that. Gmat score is also not a problem. However, the experience might or might not go in your favour, since you'll be learning with a pool of around 5-6 years experienced professionals. You might want to explain how having such a diverse profile will help you and your class and it might work in your favour!!
