alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1677 A lot to like here. Sounds like you’ve done well at work. Impact is important. You have strong activities outside of work. Super GMAT. You are aiming high, but I think you should. Sloan and Haas might be a couple more programs to consider. Are you targeting the first rounds? (0)
