Hi Mr. Brazilian Banker! This is Kate Richardson with mbaMission weighing in on your profile. Your academic background / GPA is great and clearly you will have a great foundation in finance. I also like that you have strong internship experience, international exposure, and several examples of giving back to the community. What worries me most is your GMAT, which is well below Kellogg’s average. I think even if you could get your score up to the mid 600s, ideally high 600s to 700, you’d be in much better shape. Good luck!
