Profile for Top MBA

Hi, I'd like to get recommendations for top MBA programs and my chances of getting in based on the following:

3.75 GPA (Top 15, Econ/Math, 3.9 Major GPA) 730 GMAT equivalent (GRE) 3 years experience upon entrance at top econ consulting firm (NERA, Cornerstone, Analysis Group)

I was looking for programs that would help me transition / feed into hedge funds after graduation. Based on my background any recommendations for programs would be great along with my chances. Also are there programs that are better for quantitative shops or fundamental places?

Thank you!

Wharton, Booth, and Columbia -- apply to all 3.

And network your ass off, regardless of whether you end up going or not.

Agreed that W/B/C are good options given your goals, HBS is going to be very tough but worth a shot. You should consult with an admissions consultant but I probably wouldn't say you want to transition to HF on your application

 

Thanks so much for the responses. I definitely will get an admissions consultant to try to figure out the best way to market my career path.

Is it feasible to break into a hf directly given my background or would I need to first go from the MBA program to ib for traditional finance experience?

Thanks again.
