Chances to land at MBB post MBA?

All,

Thank you for reading me. Currently a first year associate at a US mega fund in Europe (Real Estate team), I am now considering to apply to various US MBAs hoping to relocate and switch into consulting (please note that I am European so would need to be sponsored).

Ideally, I would like to target practices with focus on PE/Infrastructure/Real Estate.Could my profile be attractive for any MBB given my background?

  • 4.5 years in Real Estate Private Equity
  • Msc in Finance from top EU school
  • 720 GMAT
  • Considering to apply to Booth, Kellogg, Berkeley and UCLA (more interested by the West Coast). Also hope to be able to get a small scholarship.

Thanks for your feedback.
