I'd love to get your take on my profile and chances of acceptance at my target schools, as well as any advice you have for how to best present my profile (and what to highlight) during the application process.
26/M/Dual-Citizen (US/EU)
WE: 2 years of experience (3 at matriculation) as an analyst at a reputable economic/litigation consulting firm with one recent promotion to Senior Analyst. I have worked on a number of case teams ranging in size from 3-20 people. The bulk of my casework is intensive data analysis, but I have done plenty of qualitative analysis work as well. I have had consistently strong reviews/performance and am widely recognized within my office for my excellent technical skills (Managers actively seek to staff me on any data-heavy cases they have).
GMAT: 730 GMAT, 49 Q/40 V, Percentiles: 80 Q/91 V/97 Overall. My verbal was much lower than on any practice exams I took (generally was in the 750-780 range with a 45-50 V). Is it worth retaking?
College info: 3.7 in Electrical Engineering from BYU, graduated in 2012.
Volunteer:
-Served a two-year mission for my church, worked 80+ hour weeks consistently and managed/trained groups of ~15 other missionaries.
-Have spent the last few months as the head math instructor for a prison education outreach program. I have had to design a curriculum and series of learning assessments for participating inmates, as well as tutor/grade them on their learning exercises.
-Currently a youth (ages 14-18) Sunday school instructor at my church. I help the youth develop and practice teaching skills, as I have each of the students rotate through and teach the class each week.
Post-MBA Goal: I want to become a Product Manager, preferably at a large tech company. I am more interested in tech (due to my undergrad), but I would also be interested/willing to fill the same role at a non-tech company.
The schools I am currently considering most-strongly are HBS, Stanford, Sloan, Booth, Kellogg, Fuqua, Haas, and Darden. I'm also open to considering any other recommended schools.
Thanks!
