How about getting a job first before trying to predict what you're going to be doing 3 years from now. You'd probably be better served by trying to improve your GPA at Seton Hall instead of wasting your time predicting business school chances at this stage of the game.

 

All parts of my resume are dead giveaways as to my identity.. I will forward it to you if you have 100+ points.

Vaguely however 1. What is your current school? Duh

  1. Expected GMAT?

At least 700 based upon my 30 act (96th precentile) Id say 720-30 isnt unlikely

  1. W/E?

Heavy, not full time though. Great summer internship this year.

  1. E/C's? Yes, Quite a few with leaderships and distinction

  2. Recommendations? golden

 

Actually byrdman, I had trouble getting a BB internship this summer, so I went with a company that has an obcenely good reputation.. one of the top places on the planet to work for... will this affect my chances.

Not necessarily. If you can nail a 730 and can secure a full time offer with the company you name here, you should be ok.

 

I think you might be a bit off assuming that 30 on your ACT translates to a 720-730 on the GMAT. I'm not saying you can't/won't get that score. While it's true that if you go strictly by percentiles, that works, but remember that there is selection bias to who takes the GMAT. Just about everyone has to take the ACT/SAT to get into college, but a vast majority of those kids (especially the ones at the lower end) will not have the ambition to go to BSchool.

for me

29 ACT

740 GMAT

Of course, when I was in high school I didn't decide that I wanted to go to college until my senior year and half-arsed the ACT (wanted to be in a rock band).

Of course, I got older and wiser and actually took a month to prepare for the GMAT.

I'd say that if you go got a 30 on the ACT after really really prepping hard and maybe even after 2-3 attempts, a 700+ on the first go may be out of reach. If you just dabbled around a bit for the ACT and got a 30, then a month of preparation for the GMAT and you should be golden for the 700+.
