Roast my MBA application- Deferred Edition

Looking at applying to some top tier deferred enrollment MBA programs, lmk if I stand a chance given the very non target undergrad-

Schools: Harvard 2+2, Wharton Moelis, UVA Darden, Chicago Booth, Columbia, Carnegie Mellon Tepper

Academics: international (see my user) non-target. Full merit scholarship. Will graduate Summa Cum Laude. GPA 3.97. Business admin major. Valedictorian in HS.

Internships: UMM PEAG SA23 (Menlo), Amazon 22, currently working @ european capital markets company. Also worked in international diplomacy societies (unpaid)

Extracurricular: President of student council, president of business & finance club, tutor for ESL students, published research @ international IFRS conference, LSE AIC delegate 2023

Test scores: I haven’t taken GMAT/GRE yet- planning on it in mid-March/early April. Study insights appreciated.

Demo: white straight female/ also graduating 1 yr early (21) if it makes a difference

Other: Planning to write on how I can add value to MBA class by leveraging international experience/global perspective on markets from 3 yrs living & working in the industry abroad
