Looking for advice on applying to my top schools, providing a profile review here.
M, 25, white
Targeting: Ross, Booth, Kellogg, Sloan
Reach: HBS, Wharton
GRE- Just took again and got a 320 unofficial (157 V 163 Q). I believe this will be the weakest part of my application, tough studying when working full time. Just trying to “get my foot in the door”. Bumped this up from a 314 from last time.
GPA: 3.5 from a pretty rigorous UG in biomedical engineering
WE - Management consulting. Will be four years when I go to school. Fairly involved at work, part of some cool projects in a very unique space with a lot of experience in a niche field.
Sponsorship: My company is also sponsoring me to attend business school, meaning I’ll have a guaranteed job waiting for me when I come back.
First Gen college student - not sure if this helps but technically will be marking this on apps.
Essays: Overall will be a highlight of my application.
So, I’m essentially asking if the schools I’m targeting are too much of a stretch realizing that my GRE is the weak point of my app. Thinking of retaking again, but just not sure how much more I can truly study while working full time.
