Dear Paul,
I didn't post details of my profile so you couldn't comment on it.
I hereby again listed my profile below.
I am from Taiwan, graduated from Taiwan Top one University
GMAT 690 / TOFEL (CBT) 267 / Age 25
My academice perfomance in university is quite good, average score is 86.11 and ranked 15/130 when i graduated.
During the last year in university I choose to be an exchange student in Finland, and had a part time job there. The part time job is testing Nokia mobile phone for a global solution company. I was backpacking around Scandinavian countries, Estonia, Russia, Italy, France during this year ( But I don't know whether I should show this experience)
After returning Taiwan, I joined an European corporate and investment bank as a sales assistant selling CDOs for about 2.2 years up to date. Althought I am a sales assistant, I have been covering marketing to clients, client requests, organizing roadshows on my own. I even closed a transaction of ABS CDO this year. As you said, my position is not allowed me to lead people, but I have done something which i think can show my leadership (to impact others). For example, I have been working with our HK team ,London team and clients to replace a manager of a fund we issued. I take the lead of all communicaitons and coordinations.
My future goal after MBA is still a sales in investment bank but i will be aiming at a sales position in regional location(ie. HK) working for top tier IB.
Regarding the extracurricular activities, I was a head of Public relationship team in Guitar club. I was also elected to be a treasurer in Residential assistant association during my stay in dormitory. My main job in the association is to control budget, communicate between students and university staffs, hold activities. I have also won one singing prize of a Kaohsiung High School Alumni association but I don't know wheter it is worthy to be mentioned as well as a part time job I did as an interviewer in AC Nielson during my last year in university.
My other interests are playing piano and skating.
However, I think my weakness will be outside orginization after work.
I almost have nothing to show. The only thing is I just started to attending a Language exchange club.
I am trying to aim at top 20 schools.
My main focus will be Duke/ Columbia/ Yale/ Cornell / CMU
What will you suggest ?? Which schools do you think I have strength to apply according to my profile ?? What points you think I should most focus on when I am writing essays?? Will it be weird that I have a career goal after MBA almost same as what I am doing now ??
Please let me know your thought about my profile. Thank you.

usochopper,
I don't think Columbia is doable. Yale will be a longshot. You should be competitive at Duke, Cornell, and CMU. You might add UCLA, Rochester, and/or Vanderbilt to your list. It's not weird to return to your same career after the MBA. You just need to explain why the MBA is essential to advance to the level you're aiming for. Your leadership and extracurricular seem weak to me, so emphasize the leadership you do have as much as you can in the esays, and do talk the singing, travel, and Guitar Club because these show character traits that may compensate for your weaknesses.
Good luck,

Dear Paul,
THank you for your reply.
I know where my weakness is- Leadership and extracurricular.
I would like to know how I could improve these if I apply 2009.
I will retake GMAT for sure.
If I join a organization our of work,do you think it will be helpful to show my extracurricular and my leadership?
THank you
