Hi Raj, it sounds like you have a lot of ambitions and plans. I am pretty unclear on your eligibility for these programs - have you graduated, are you a junior or senior, or are you in a graduate program you entered directly from your undergraduate work? Also, the work experience with the kiosks - were you doing that while in college or in some kind of full time work period as a gap? So, I think the first question is: are you eligible?
Then, if you are, you can apply, but usually these programs are looking for clear impact and leadership in a particular area, and it sounds like you have been trying a lot of different things - biology, entrepreneurship, accountancy. To me, it seems like you are still finding your direction somewhat...which is completely OK but maybe not an indication that you are the right candidate for these programs. Why not apply in 4-5 years when you have more leadership and clarity? If you must try for these programs, do your best on the GMAT, but even more so - step up your leadership in the things you care about and develop your passion/direction for how you plan to make your mark in the world.
Not too many people do BOTH a CPA and MBA, or if they do it's sequential and not at the same time, with the CPA usually happening first. Why do you need the MBA exactly, what kind of "boost" are you thinking? My guess is you'd be best served by doing your accounting plans post graduation and then later seeing if an MBA makes sense for where you want to go. Wishing you luck!
Warmly,
Julie-Anne Heafey
