Hi there,
Thanks for reaching out and I'm impressed by your profile--you're international experience is really interesting and I'm sure it will stand out to ad coms as well. I'd definitely play that up--you must have some interesting stories to pull from for your essays!
As far as target schools, I think you're on the right track. It's an unfortunate reality that the best indicator of success in the process is how closely your GMAT score aligns with the average GMAT of the schools on your list. (And coming from an over-represented demographic it probably should be a little higher than the average...) Anything you can do to pass the hurdle of 700 would pay off. That being said, if you gave it your all it's still a solid score and I think well positioned for a number of top schools. Data analytics is a red hot field right now and your international experience is impressive. I'd check out Rotterdam, IESE, and Mannheim if you're interested in Europe. In the US I'd look into Olin, Indiana Kelley, Georgetown, and Notre Dame--all great schools where I think you'd be a competitive applicant.
Hope that helps and feel free to reach out to us for a free consultation to learn more!

Hi Karen,
Thanks a lot for reaching out. Actually Singapore is my priority and I am hoping to crack the two schools there. Are my chances fair for those two schools?
Any particular aspect that I need to care of?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help!
