anon10970 Likes Earned: 4 Looking to pivot to mgmt consulting after 3 years of working in operational and strategic roles at top classical music companies and experiencing the limitations of an industry that is constantly in panic mode due to poor funding and short-sighted management. Eventually would love to come back to the arts, bringing consulting-honed management skills with me. GRE: 170V, 156Q, 5.5 Writing (I know, I know. I should have raised my quant) Academics: PBK, Ivy undergrad, very diverse courses taken (math minor, ancient languages, music), lots of aced graduate-level courses on my transcript Personal: Multiracial (Black/White/Hispanic), woman, many college ECs (performing arts, literary societies, archeological digs, debate, funded research but nothing published) (0)

I assume you’ve applied in Round 2? Showing impact and growth at work is very important, backed up by strong recs. Are you currently involved in activities outside of work?
