Do Back Office guys have good prospects to Stanford GSB?
I am currently in a BO role at Fidelity Investments as a Systems Analyst and I would like to transition into the management consulting ndustry. Looking from the class profile GSB took more people from tech than financial services. I understand these include the software engineers and programmers from Apple and Microsoft but I am sure they include BO roles as well? Does this mean that BO guys get good prospects at Stanford?
Also historically though how hard of a time did Back office guys like me have when applying to top MBA programs like Stanford? Does your pre-MBA job matter a lot?
Finally what are my chances for schools in the M7? Here are some stats:
- Indian/Male
- Undergrad institution: University of Texas at Arlington
- Degree/Major: BS in Information Systems
- GPA: 3.7
- GMAT: 720
- Career: Systems Analyst @ Fidelity Invesmtents (3 yrs coming next week)
You trolls are getting worse and worse each day.
I can't tell if the OP is a troll, but to answer your question, I have a better chance of sleeping with Margot Robbie than you getting into Stanford GSB or HBS.
I would take this bet for SIZE and lay odds
Not trolling. What about the other M7 programs?
Oh really? Then were you trolling when you posted that you were a Junior a while ago?

You have as good of a shot as anyone else if you have a good story
I know someone who was a credit analyst at a local bank who is at Stanford now
Like Monty said if you have a good story, you have the same shot as anyone else.
