    Hi Mr. Navy Vet, Melisa here from Stratus Admissions. Thank you for your service to our country. I am wondering if you were Navy full time and entrepreneur part time or the reverse. Either way, would love to understand more about that experience. It sounds like youā€™ve made the switch to financial services as an advisor – so would love to know more about why IB and where you hope that will take you long term? What is driving your goals?

    Thank you for your service. Even with a stem major at a tough school like the Naval Academy you have a low GPA. The average GPA for Georgetown McDonough is a 3.3. The GRE you have (assuming roughly equal quant and verbal) is 560. That is 130 points below the average. You should try to boost the GRE/GMAT and have an explanation for the lowish grades. Good luck.
