rbmk hope this finds you well
You have a fantastic profile, just the kind for making it to most top business schools.
However, to add more interest to your candidacy, concentrate on your growth story. Describe your personal and professional growth year by year, demonstrating how your success has earned you incremental responsibilities. Integrate international flavor, part time jobs and side hustles into your story to provide many layers. Admissions committees look for candidates that contribute a variety of opinions to the classroom. The source of these experiences can vary widely. Combining all of your experiences and characteristics can result in a one-of-a-kind profile despite consulting being a feeder profile to top B schools.
