MBA Profile for Fall 21 Admission

I graduated from a Top 25 university in 2018 (GPA ~3.5) - I am currently working at a T2 consulting firm in NYC. I'm planning to apply to MBA this Fall and am studying for the GMAT's. I have some solid project experience and good firm development roles within the firm. I'm aiming for 720+ on the GMAT's.

I want to apply to Columbia MBA ED - what are my chances given my profile? What are some good target schools to apply for in Round 1 if Columbia ED doesn't work out?

Thank you for your interest in the 2020 Investment Banking Full-time Analyst Programme (London) at JPMorgan Chase. After a thorough review of your application, we regret to inform you that we are unable to move forward with your candidacy at this time.
 

Spoke with someone the other day who told me, "if you want to go to columbia, get a 700 and tell them you want to help make NYC a tech scene and that you'r enrtrepreneurial".

JW, what are you thinkning about pivoting to post-mba? Bschool? IB? Asking cause I'm in a similar boat
