Seems like a very solid profile to me. I like your target list. I would really focus on the story you are going to craft in your essays. Your hard stats are all there (GMAT/GPA/WE) so at this point, I think it's mostly about how you spin it.
I think the target list is very reasonable, and you have a solid shot at getting into any of those (CBS being the lowest but still very possible).
I think ultimately your essay/story will be the deciding factor since there isn't much more you can do about your WE. But your stats are very solid, honestly only thing that maybe holds you back is your work experience.
If I was a betting man I would assume you'd get into atleast two of those programs if you apply r1/r2
Thank you for your comment. I did revise the list taking off CBS, Duke, andLBSsince I do not believe they align with my goals and realistic expectations.
I do appreciate that my work experience is not ideal for top schools, though I hope my emphasis on project management & BI analytics in my ops role will help explain my career changegoal into management consulting. Does it help my profile if I managed 4+ analysts/interns & have good LoR fromBBdirectors I worked extensively with?
Anyone who knows something knows that he knows nothing.
You've got all of the stuff on paper, it's going to be selling why you a)want to go that school b)making sure the essays are solid. I would throw a couple of additional M7s in there if you can afford themit. You'll be from an overrepresented group but if you can interview well enough then you'll get into one.
You have a competitive profile for your target programs. Show fit. Make the most of your accomplishments.
Word of advice: do not apply as Asain. You said you're also European, go with that.
I'm not sure if I can apply to American programs with my EU citizenship if I am also American citizen.
Or did you mean when I submit my ethnicity? I normally put 2 or more races.
