alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1830 When are you planning to take the GMAT or GRE? Make sure to leave enough time in case you need to retake. Target round 1, where at all possible.

Showing impact and growth at work is really important, at each of your roles. Explaining the transitions will also be important. Then having clear and focused post MBA goals will help, more?

Are you also involved in activities outside of work? Any additional hobbies and interests?

alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1830 330+ GRE will help, is your 3.0 GPA competitive? Is it a converted GPA. Building and running communities can be very challenging, especially those with impact. (0)
