My background:

I am from Somalia (Not a very popular place, which I understand).

Studied accounting and graduated with a 3.3 GPA.

My GPA dropped a bit because I was working as the oldest male in my household, and I had to provide, or at least be independent, and I wasn't fully focused on my academics.

After graduating, I spent three years as a teacher and then became a school principal (two different institutions).

In the principal role, I actually implemented changes and had an impact.

I also previously worked in marketing, administration, and sales.

Currently preparing for the GRE and hoping to score high, I am doing the online version of the test.
