Hey everybody and anybody,
Could you please evaluate my (rough, very early) profile? All information is based on the year when I would apply (for intake 2017, graduation 2019)
Demographics: 27 year old white, American male (26 at time of application, 27 at matriculation)
GMAT: 680 (only taken first practice and haven't studied, expect 720)
Education:
Undergrad: 3.7 GPA in English with Honors while working in the university Writing Center from private top 100 school
Grad: 3.3 GPA in top 20 in Public Policy with specialization in Regulatory Policy from top 20 program. GPA is a little low here because it was my first real experience with heavy quant work and I admittedly struggled initially. Final pro bono team consulting project research paper was published and received some media attention.
Work Experience:
3+ years as a Regulatory Economist for a Federal agency
do my grad school internships matter here? I am guessing no...
EC:
Mentor and tutor for underprivileged high school students through a nonprofit
member of Toastmasters
leader for Federal charity campaign within agency
Focusing to apply R1 for 2017:
UC Berkeley Haas
MIT Sloan
Duke Fuqua
UVA Darden
Northwestern Kellogg
Reach: Stanford GSB
Questions:
What are some things I can do in the upcoming two years to improve my chances? What programs do you believe I should focus on? Are my ambitions totally off-base?
Thanks so much for your time and consideration! I appreciate any guidance you can give at this early point in this process.

Right off the bat, you'll need to demonstrate that you can handle the quantitative rigor of B-school since as right now there appears to be questions. The first thing you can do is crush the GMAT (higher than a 720). Secondly, I would look into some quant-heavy courses through UCLA or Berekeley extension and ace them.

Awesome! Thanks for your quick response. Do you have any particular suggestions on which extension courses I should focus on? Looking at Berkeley's offerings right now. I am located in DC and some appear to classroom-based, which would be a bit of a stretch for me haha.
I appreciate your input.
