Extracurriculars

Average ECs: President of a large/fairly active fraternity, now sitting on the Alumni Advisory Board; some volunteer work with Minds Matter in New York (mock college interviews), but nothing consistent; FWIW, took a gap year after high school and worked fairly extensively in winemaking/sustainable agriculture.

Post-MBA

Hoping to use my MBA to pivot to the investment-side of a secondaries PE or Buyout PE climate/sustainability-focused firm. Really unsure at this point how feasible it is to make this pivot, given my non-technical background. Otherwise, will likely recruit for IB.

I obviously have some time to strengthen my profile, though not enough to make much of a difference in the lackluster extra curriculars. I’m wondering what people think I might do to most strengthen my application. I’d also be interested to hear opinions on the feasibility of recruiting into PE/growth investing in some manner, or whether that’s more or less out of the question.
