Hey guys, I thought I would ask for an outside perspective regarding my application, any advice is appreciated!
Age : 22
GMAT : 710, AWA 6.0 IR 8
GPA : 3.44/4.00
From the Middle East, moved to Missouri State University, USA on a scholarship. Did an Erasmus student exchange in Liege, Belgium for about 6 months. Lived in and received college-level instruction in 3 different continents. Visited over 20 countries. Placed within the top 10 at my university's public speaking showcase, even though english is not my first language. Received a few other scholarships whilst studying for my undergrad. Held leadership roles with my business fraternity, student government association and stayed relatively involved on campus.
WE: Started at my university recreation centre as a janitor, left 2 years later as the Building Manager. Also the youngest ever employee for Etihad Airways one of the worlds leading airlines (17 years old at the time). Marketing Internship at MPI in Dallas, TX from Jan - Sep 2016. I speak Arabic and English.
I'm looking at MSc options, since I do not think I have the WE you need for an MBA, what do you think my chances would be at the following uni's? :
Bocconi, RSM, LSE, Imperial, LBS, Duke MMS, St.Gallen, Cass.
Are there any other universities you suggest I may look into?
Thanks guys!
Hey there,
Well you have a very interesting profile and an interesting stry too.
So you can look into MiM (Masters in Management) or other Masters in similar fields (Accounting, Finance, etc). Those will be your primary options, since as you pointed out, you lack the WE for MBA programs.
From the list you gave, if you were to apply to all the schools on the list I think you would do fine and dandy,
Best,
Jon
