While your GMAT is excellent and highly competitive, I'm afraid that your relative lack of work experience and mediocre college record will hurt your chances at Tuck. Certainly with a 750, I can't say that you don't have a chance, but I'm not optimistic.
Look into Chicago, Columbia, NYU, and UCLA.
Good luck!

Hey Linda,
I was just wondering, based on your response it seems that Tuck looks for people with experience and/or strong undergrad....Am I correct to assume that from you email?
Are there certain schools that weigh work experience more so than undergrad gpa? If so I was wondering if you could provide some color on this. The reason behind my question is that my undergrad is relatively weak where everything else on my profile (work, extra cirr., an alt. transcript, gmat) is strong.
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
JP
