I would love feedback on my profile. As you can see, I have a low GPA and GRE score. To possibly offset both the low GPA and GRE, I have completed MBA Math, which I did amazing on since it's just applied mathematic concepts. I do not plan on retaking the GRE since I am applying to R1 and am currently in the middle of finishing and submitting all my applications. My undergraduate major is in the social sciences, so I have no previous experience in quantitative matters. However, I was a mathematics educator for two years.
Since graduating college in 2019, I joined Teach For America, where I taught mathematics. Then in 2021, I was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to teach English abroad. My background is very nontraditional, but I've heard that most top business schools do like candidates with nontraditional backgrounds such as mine. I hope that Adcoms will see that, despite my low GPA and GRE, I am a determined individual since I was accepted into Teach For America and awarded a Fulbright Scholarship—how should/can I communicate this point across? Post-MBA, I would like to be a consultant and then pivot my career once more into a different sector. I would appreciate any kind of constructive feedback on my profile.
Additional points:
1. During the last three years, I have held numerous board member roles/leadership roles.
2. I have also volunteered very much post-college with multiple organizations.
3. I was also very involved as a college student, but I plan on only discussing the involvement I've been in post-college since they are significant and impactful.
Thank you once more!
