Prestigious undergrad. Good GPA. Good work experience. goals can be outlined if you have a good story.
I only see one bad thing. GRE. GRE to gmat cannot be easily converted since they are not the same tests. But ETS does provide a GRE to GMAT conversion scale. 159Q 161V falls at 640 GMAT with a straight conversion. That is a lower score than even the top 30 B-schools. But once again - you cannot directly convert them. GRE scores in the in the upper 320s are really valued. You need to aim to get the GRE a tad bit higher to have a shot at M7.
Average GREs:
Kellogg - 327
Booth - 324 - 17% reported GRE scores
MIT - 158-169 Quant 80% and 157-168 Verbal 80%
Wharton - 162Q-162V - 324
Harvard - 163V-164Q - 327 - 29% reported GRE
Stanford - 165Q-165V - 330
Once again - you have a good profile. Last thing I/anyone would want is for you to not make it due to a simple score that you can easily improve on. If you have time that you can dedicate - I will highly suggest retaking if possible. If not - Good luck!
I’d like to hope a lot of the reported mean scores are driven up by outliers! Thanks for the insight I’ll take a couple more swings at it
