Female, 26 years old
4 years full time work experience in CPG - I worked in marketing for a year, supply chain for a year (managed a team of 4), and will have two years of experience managing a >$100m e-commerce business at my current company. I was given a promotion within one month of being hired at my current company. All three organizations have been leading CPGs in their respective categories.
I am the chief volunteer for a local animal rescue, am a photographer in my free time, and have been a competitive athlete for many years (club team in college).
3.8 GPA from Stanford University
GMAT score 760, 45 verbal, 49 quant (took exam once)
From the United States
Intended industry: consulting with long-term goal of working in strategy at top CPG
Target schools: Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, Kellogg, Booth
Applying round 1
Would love to know if target schools are appropriate and what my chances might look like.
Thank you in advance!

Hi, and thanks for writing! It sounds like you have a very well-rounded profile - professional progression at prominent companies, a track record of extracurricular involvement, and outstanding academics.
HBS and Stanford are an unpredictable reach for everyone, but you can definitely be a viable candidate with well-executed applications that show the admissions committees your values and what shaped who you are today. I think that Wharton, Kellogg, and Booth are good target schools -Kellogg is especially a strong match because of its strengths in both consulting and CPG and its student-driven culture.
Best of luck with your applications!
