alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1580 Be good to hear more about your post MBA plans, and why MBA? Best to pick either consulting (more common) or investment banking in the short term. And then have a longer term goal (operations leadership for example).

Make sure you reach out to the veterans’ clubs of all the programs you’re targeting. Military experience with good leadership generally works well in admissions.

Be good to hear more about your selection of target programs. Two LA-based programs will not be as effective for placing in New York, for example.
