Intake Year: 2021

Pre-MBA Career: Data Scientist at Booz Allen Hamilton

GMAT: 730

GPA: 3.3

Years of Work Experience: 3

Location: Washington, DC

Notes:

I am involved at work in recruiting and organizing service and outside of work I am involved as a leader in a pro-bono consulting firm, treasurer of the alumni club of my undergrad institution, and member of literacy non-profit. I was heavily involved in ECs in college as well and studied engineering in college (which I am hoping will offset my low GPA). I am also planning on retaking my GMAT in the next couple of weeks and my last two practice tests have been a 740 and 750 (Q50 both times).

alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1677 Sounds like you can show impact, outside of work, which is good. Data science might well be a positive, if you can show impact. Certainly a field that will continue to grow in demand, i'd think. 730 is already a high GMAT, a retake might help, on the margin. Nice spread of schools. Might also consider Booth and Johnson. (0)
