Young entrepreneur, how to make my experience more fancy?

(The image here is better: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8427/7647925662_00a…)

I'm a B.S. student in USC Marshall and took one year off from school to work in a startup founded by a close friend of mine. Till now I have over 21 months of full-time working experience (including in summers) and 9 months of part-time).

The company is growing very fast (over 6M USD revenue this year already) and I contributed significantly to the company as one of its five founding members. Also I have stock option in this company too and we are planning on making it big (VC-backed already, will go public in couple years).

However, entrepreneurial experience is not very typical (if you have Goldman, that's typically good) and I'm worried that I couldn't make it eyecatching enough.

I'm planning on applying for HBS and Stanford GSB's MBA program (they allow college senior to apply). But how to make the admission committees recognize and love my entrepreneurial experience?

I would appreciate if you could give me any advice! Thank you!

Look in the business school forum. There are some admission consultants there that can point you in the right direction.

For the record: a highly successful start-up is way more impressive than Goldman.

Thank you very much! I will also post on bschool forum to ask too.

However, here I want to hear some advice on how to improve my resume and reflect my experience? Also, English is my second language so I found it hard for me to select the proper words to put on resume too.
