Hello,
Education:
Bachelor's in Marketing from Cal Poly
Minor in Regenerative Studies (Sustainability)
Overall GPA 2.6
Work Experience:
3 years with the same company (worked in 3 different cities): Operations/Logistics Supervisor (1 year), Regional Sales Manager (1 year)
Industry: Import/Export, global supply chain, transportation, air cargo
2 years with a burgeoning aerospace company...(in the newspaper almost every day)
I started back over at entry level at their corporate HQ, then moved into a specialist role at the launch site in Florida (logistics/supply chain)
GMAT score from 5/26/18 (1st attempt)
Gmat 610
Quant 35
Verbal 39
Extracurricular Activities:
VP and then President of Ski/Snowboard club - grew membership from 33 members to 108 in two years (largest social club on campus)
San Gabriel Mountain Trail Builders - Volunteer, picking up trash, clearing trails of dangerous obstacles, creating new trails
San Gabriel Mountains Forever Leadership Academy - Conservation advocacy group funded by The Wilderness Society, received congressional letter of recognition, and a letter of recognition from city mayor, attended ceremony where the POTUS designated the San Gabriel Mountains as a national monument.
NASA Technology Transfer Specialist Project (3 Months)
Personal Life:
Single mother.
Mother was adopted.
Hispanic.
Raised by my grandparents.
Family was devastated financially by the recession, we lost our business.
Left home at 17, homeless for 2 years.
No car until after college graduation.
Worked nearly full time through all of college.
Hard work paid off and I am successful, own a home, and am upward bound at my new employer.
My biggest concern is my GPA, but there's not much I can do about it now.
I think I can bring my GMAT score up as my practice tests were showing a range up to 690.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Not sure how much of my personal bio should go into my application letter.
Would really like to attend a Top 10 school. I am also very favorable towards University of Florida, which I am speaking with now.
I want to achieve an MBA as a personal goal and in order to grow my career as I want to be in management.
I would also like to try my hand at consulting.

Hi steeeez830,
Thank you for reaching out and for sharing your profile. You have a compelling personal story about which I would like to learn more. Indeed, top 10 programs receive applications from candidates with higher GPA scores (average 3.5+). To counterbalance the low GPA, I recommend building a strategy to help increase your GMAT score to 720+. The GMAT helps universities discern a candidate's capability to succeed in their program. Also, you need to flesh out the reason why you need an MBA, and why now. You should consider applying to three different school buckets to give yourself a fair chance: stretch, safety, and reach.
As to your personal story, it is imperative that you, which includes your background, is at the forefront of your candidate profile. You must, however, provide pertinent information and not overshare... there's a fine balance.
You might benefit from a free consultation. If interested, please reach out to coordinate a call (contact details in signature).
Good luck!
