Good Afternoon,
I recently took my second GMAT exam and got a score of 695 FE (Q83, V87, D83).
Demographics: White, Male, 25, European
Work: I've been working in big 4 consulting for 3 years, which will be 4 before matriculation, with a focus on technology strategy and delivery.
Education: I went to a tier 2 state school in the United States, majored in Information Systems and Computer Science and got a 3.56 GPA.
International Experience: I don't have much international work experience, other than a brief project in college, but I am a first generation immigrant to the United States.
Extracurriculars: I'm on the alumni board for an organization I was a part of in college, I've been on the board for 2.5 years.
I'm looking to gauge what my likelihood is for admittance into M7, INSEAD, and LBS. What are my chances for these schools, and how can I improve my profile?

- Have you had any promotions (or progressions) in your roles? Any key professional achievements worth highlighting?
- What are your directional career goals post-MBA?
- Reg. extracurriculars, are you still on the board of the organization, and what activities are you involved in there? Any other extracurriculars e.g. arts, sports, volunteering, etc.?

ssier,
Thank you for reaching out and congratulations on completing your second GMAT. You've clearly put serious thought into your MBA journey, and there's a lot to work with here. Let me give you an honest, strategic read of where you stand.
Your profile has real strengths but also some friction points that require deliberate positioning.
What's Working in Your Favor
· Tech strategy + delivery at Big 4 is a cleaner story than pure advisory. You're not just recommending you're building. Adcoms notice that.
· First-gen immigrant is your most underutilized asset. At INSEAD and LBS especially, this isn't a footnote it's a headline.
· Board tenure at 25 shows early leadership trust. We just need to find the impact inside it.
What Needs Work
· GMAT for some schools (mentioned below) is slightly at the edge / lower side. I can imagine that a 3[sup]rd[/sup] attempt might be too draining for you, but definitely worth a shot in pursuit of your ambition.
· Undergrad school needs smart framing but a 3.56 dual STEM major in consulting context actually plays fine. Your recommenders carry this one.
· Leadership stories need more depth. Right now you have the titles — Big 4 consultant, board member — but M7 adcoms want the moments. Where did you take a stance? Drive change? Bring people along?
Realistic Odds
The Positioning Opportunity We'd Explore With You
Here's what excites us about your profile: you are a European-born, first-generation American immigrant, with deep tech strategy expertise, who chose to build roots in a new country while developing world-class professional skills. That is not a generic consulting profile. That is a character arc.
Feel free to setup a 30 min pro-bono profile brainstorming session with us. We think there's a compelling application here and we'd love to help you find it.
Cheers and wishing you all the very best !!

Realistic Odds
| School | Verdict |
| HBS / GSB | Long shot one swing worth taking |
| Wharton / Booth / Kellogg | Competitive with 705+ |
| MIT Sloan / Columbia | Strong targets right now |
| INSEAD | Potentially your best application |
| LBS | Natural fit European roots, tech focus |
