Stratus Admissions Counseling Odds Assessment: 25%

Hello Mr. Healthcare Marketing, it’s Lisa Cummings of Stratus Admissions. Your college and employment stories certainly point to true grit and determination. Wow. Candidates are sometimes wary about discussing personal stories in their applications – you shouldn’t be, I imagine adcoms will be very interested in hearing about how you achieved your education and professional successes. What obstacles did you encounter and how did you overcome them? Did you have any help or mentors along the way? Stats wise, you line up pretty well with Booth’s averages although your GPA is a little on the low side and your years of work experience is a little high so I strongly suggest that you get the applications done in this admissions cycle if …

What obstacles did you encounter and how did you overcome them? Did you have any help or mentors along the way? Stats wise, you line up pretty well with Booth’s averages although your GPA is a little on the low side and your years of work experience is a little high so I strongly suggest that you get the applications done in this admissions cycle if possible. Be sure to very clearly articulate the Why MBA in your application and to give more color around your volunteer work with JA and with the medical journal. How did you get involved in these groups and what is the extent of your work with them? Assuming that you can put together strong essays and pick the right recommenders, you should be in good shape. Best of luck in the process.
