Hey everyone,
I was wondering if I have a decent shot at CBS/Booth/Tuck in a few years. I know I'm competitive the top 10 schools, but, it really only makes sense for me to go to program with decent Private Equity placement. Also, how much will having an ms finance will hinder my chances for a top MBA program. I graduated from an ms finance program last May and took a job in equity research at a reputable MM firm. I was able to leverage that ER exp into a BB ibd analyst job, which ill be starting in a few weeks. My goal is to do 1.5-2 years in IBD then do two years of PE before applying to bschool. A little more about my background:
-White male
-BS in Chemical Engineering (state school think Rutgers/Pitt/Delaware) 3.4 GPA
-MS in Finance (top 15 school) 3.7 GPA
-MM ER (Oil & Gas) in Houston
-BB IBD Analyst Chemicals Sector (New York)
-PE hopefully within chemicals
-720 GMAT (Q49, V40) - took it almost 3 years ago so will have to retake - can prob get 750+ if I study for the verbal
-EC's - basically none, but would get something decent on my resume by the time i apply
Any shot at Booth/CBS/Tuck?
CBS would be my first choice - would maybe apply ED, but not sure
Thanks
