Asset Management background: Chances into HBS or Wharton MBAs
Hello, here is my background. Would like to know odds for the top MBA programs mentioned above:
-730 GMAT
-3.6 GPA from top 20 school
-Economics Bachelor
-5 years work experience as a buy-side equity analyst in NYC at a large asset manager, well known in Europe and Asia, less so in the US. AUM of $600bn. Previous internships during school at top banks in Sales and Trading and Investment Banking (GS/MS/JPM)
-Straight White man (from Portugal, do not think it counts as Hispanic)
-Plan to apply early decision
I know my stats are low for being a straight white man. However, my work experience is very solid and I believe MBAs may like my AM background which is very different from the standard IB/PE background folks have.
Probability of getting in? What can I do to improve my chances? I hardly think I can get higher than a 730 and I do not think that any lower-rated MBA is worth it for me. I have ruled out Stanford as I think I have no chance there.
Thank you all in advance!
Hey dude are you a white man by any chance?
