I want a top 20 MBA - currently go to a state school
Currently a senior Russian and Economics major at a state school in Texas
I really want to get into a top 20 MBA program
Will graduate with a 3.6 if not a little higher and will be going into the army as an officer. After I plan on applying for a MBA.
Got a 3.0 cum. Freshman year, after that 3.75+ every semester.
Regarding GMAT I will be able to get a 700+
Do I have a decent chance of getting into a MBA program?
........
Yes. And if you do more than 4 years in the Army, you can get the GI bill to cover it. (I'm assuming you are in ROTC)
I went to a terrible (>125 US news) state school will be attending Wharton this fall (also got into Booth/Columbia). I have a 730 GMAT and a 3.6 GPA. Work experience is the biggest component and was my saving grace ($$$ billion investment fund)... you can definitely get there if you kill it!
You should be competitive, as long as your GMAT is above a 700 min (and ideally above 720 -but who knows in 5 years, with GMAT inflation the way it is, probably closer to 740+).
I'm a Naval officer. I've heard of military guys with 650 GMATs getting into Darden. You shouldn't have anything to worry about- just go out and kill it during your first couple military tours. Good luck.
