An Oil & Gas Guy At HBS Or GSB?

For the past three and one-half years, Adam has worked as a finance associate for a private equity-backed oil and gas firm in Texas. Before that gig, he spent a year and one-half in an i-banking job in oil and gas and a year in corporate banking with Bank of America.

With a 750 GMAT and a 3.6 GPA from UT-Austin McCombs, he’s hoping to get into a top business school’s MBA program. His targets: Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, Columbia, and Chicago Booth.

HBSGuru.com Founder Sandy Kreisberg assesses his odds in this Friday with Sandy’s episode.
