  • Odds Assessment: 45%

    Hi Mr. Healthcare Fanatic! This is Talon Rindels, Senior Admissions Consultant at The MBA Exchange. I’m feeling a bit more optimistic about you than the others, especially if we consider your chances of getting into at least one of your three schools. You have a lot of impressive experience and stats that I think any business school would consider themselves lucky to capitalize on by admitting you, so long as you tell the right story to connect the dots. Your GMAT score is exceptional and should offset your “ok” GPA, even for a potential Indian applicant (as they often rely on the Indian pool to bring their average up, so it can be more competitive).

  • Stratus Admissions Counseling Odds Assessment: 25%

    Hi, it’s Jennifer Jackson from Stratus Admissions. Don’t let the 25% chance discourage you — that’s well above the average admit for HBS of 10%! You have so much in your profile that will appeal to HBS. The very strong GMAT will stand out and combination of consulting and product development all under the healthcare umbrella will be compelling. The GPA is a bit under the average but shouldn’t be an issue given you had a double major at a great school. It’s also great to see some of the extracurriculars tied to your passion of innovation in healthcare. You have a solid, crisply worded ST goal and LT goal that helps connect the dots. Be sure in your essay to really dig into the …
