Age: 19
GPA: 3.75 Upper GPA: 3.98 I slacked off a bit in general education
I should probably mention that I have a D on my transcript (Current Applications in Biology) but I'm hoping the fact that I have made straight A's consecutively since my 2nd semester of sophmore year may compensate for that.
GMAT: Taking it next friday... got a 690 on my last practice test, but will probably take it again next month. I should also mention my breakdown is usually 47-49 Q and 35 V. I'm having a tough time with sentence correction :/ What range would I need to be a competitive candidate?
Ethnicity/Gender: Indian Female (educated in the US)
Major: Information Systems
School: University of North Florida
Extracurriculurs:
On campus Mentoring program - 6 months
Relay for life - 4 years (member) 1 year (committee)
Active Minds (Treasurer) (~1 year)
TAJA (cultural organization) - Youth Organization Founder/Coordinator (8 years)
National Leadership Society
UPE (Computer Science Honor Society - Invitation only)
Other various volunteer work (volunteering at homeless shelters, feeding the homeless, etc.)
Work Experience: Part time Internship (Full time over summer) At BCBSFL (BlueCross and BlueShield of Florida) for 1.5 years as a Business Analyst. See resume for additional details
Career Plans: I would like to get an MSF and acquire a career in corporate finance and move on to get my MBA a few years after so I can be more competitive in more challenging management roles.
Hello! Would you mind assessing my profile? I'm not really looking into MBA programs in particular, but more of MSF programs such as Vandy, UF, UIUC, BC, MIT and Purdue. (Top choice is obviously MIT, and vandy next) I'm also looking to apply to Yale's Silver Scholars program, which is somewhat of a fast track MBA for college seniors. My main point of concern is my fit and competitiveness for these schools as well as if there are any other MSF programs I should be considering.
I have highlighted my areas of concern in red.
Thank you for your time! It's greatly appreciated

Before I reply could you clarify for me where you are at in your college career? Are you going into your senior year?
Also, were there extenuating circumstances that contributed to the D?
Do you have any internships? anything experience related to finance?
Best,
Linda

Yes, I'm currently in my senior year of college, so I would be applying for programs this coming summer/fall.
As for circumstances, honestly the only reason is I'm really not a science person as well as I was dealing with some problems regarding a friend's depression and I was trying to handle that while having a job and classes, but I mean I honestly think I could've done better if I'd applied myself better.... I still take responsibility for my grade, and I've tried to overcome it's negativity on my transcript by performing well in all my other classes.
Yes, I'm currently doing an Internship at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida as a Business Analyst. I work with some Finance Related things such as budgeting, pulling unallocated reports, PPAs, making sure costs are being tracked correctly, etc, but nothing too difficult or noteworthy. Mostly, it's just helped me learn about corporate offices and get familiar with how they work.
Hope this gives you a better idea Thank you so much for your time!
