Thanks for your time!
Basics:
GMAT: 740 (IR8 Q48 V42)
GPA: 3.69 Dartmouth, Major in Government, Minor in History
Nationality: US Citizen, Korean-American
Sex: Male
Age: 28
Work Experience:
1. Law firm [Top tier boutique but not AM100]
-2.5 years as a corporate paralegal at working on Venture capital <--> Startup deals (promoted once)
2. Venture Capital Firm [Current Role] [Top 10, old firm with high AUM but not as well known as Sequoia/AH]
-2.5 years as a project manager in a finance/strategy/IR role (promoted once)
Extracurriculars:
-Board of directors (one of 8) of regional alumni association(~1000 members), also young alumni chair
-Leadership/philanthropy role in college fraternity
-Intramural Soccer post-college
-1.5 years as a Sushi chef at family’s restaurant during weekends during law firm role
Post-MBA goal:
-MC: Helping companies face problems during growth has been an overarching theme for both of my positions. I would like to continue this further in a more hands-on fashion and also work with companies of a larger size, and I think MC would offer that opportunity.
Schools:
HBS
GSB
Kellogg
Haas
Tuck
Questions:
-Given my somewhat non-traditional work trajectory, is MC a reasonable goal and does it make sense?
-Although I work at a VC firm, my role is more strategy/IR and less pure investing (I do some financial modeling but mostly for financing terms). Will I be lumped in with the finance crowd and is there a way to avoid that?
-Is my list of schools realistic?
-What would you say is the weakest part of my profile?
