alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1674 Super GMAT. Impact at work will be important, as well as any progression. Are you involved in activities outside of work? Also good to know more about your goals, and switch to IB. (0)

grichmond Verified User. Likes Earned: 1224 It's always a bit of a leap to go from Tech to IB - especially if your tech role has been, well, very technical (and not finance oriented). GMAT is stellar and GPA is decent (albeit below average at your targets). Are you an ORM? URM? Any ECs? Best of luck to you if these were all R2 apps! Keep us posted.

shawn4h Likes Earned: 3 Some added context: ORM, Umich undergrad, Tech consultant at a top tech company with moderate progression/promotions IMO. Not extremely technical work as I'm more on the project management/project finance side. GPA and moderate career progression probably make Wharton/Booth a stretch. I was an amateur boxer and currently work on the side as a boxing trainer and volunteer youth coach, which hopefully make for an interesting story. R2 Interview request at Darden, waiting on the rest! (0)
