Hi, Ms. Consistent Innovation! This is Julie-Anne Heafey with mbaMission. It sounds like you have some strong start-up work experience, and I love that you have a defined path to focus on innovation and strategy even more. Your stats look a little bit low for the averages at Foster, but they are averages – not floors – and with the right story, I think you have a decent shot. (Also: was there something in particular that happened during undergrad to drag your average down? You should consider using the optional essay to give context – but not excuses – if so.) My best advice for you is to try to speak clearly and from the heart about your experiences …

My best advice for you is to try to speak clearly and from the heart about your experiences and what you want to accomplish. Your “About Me” above had a lot of general statements and almost “business-speak” to it — but your ad com readers are really just trying to get to know you, your experiences and your dreams. Be yourself! Best of luck to you!!
