Hey there!
Thanks for writing. I have to say I like your profile. There's lots to get excited about here, and I think you have a real shot. I mean, yeah, HBS 2+2 is always a bit of a crapshoot, but I like what you have written, and I htink you just need to give it your all.
For your list of schools, some of them don't really have programs for graduates like HBS, so are you thinking about applying for them later? Or you are still ready to go now?
Best,
Jon

Hi,
Thanks for the comment. I'm only interested in deferral programs (HBS/Stanford) and I didn't realize not all business schools allow deferred admissions. Would I be at a disadvantage by applying R3 in order to raise grades a tad? I don't think I can raise them over a 3.0 given the amount of credits already taken, but I'm hoping a positive trajectory my senior year will help my chances. So, the GPA won't disqualify me?
