    Quite a bike ride accomplishment! I applaud you for your hard work for an important cause. You certainly have demonstrated that you are someone likely to be involved on campus during business school, and Kellogg will appreciate that. Kellogg should be well-suited for you with your interests in healthcare and your consulting perspective as well. I had a client last year with a healthcare focused career who surprised himself in choosing Kellogg over Columbia after extensive visits, and has found it to be a great fit with plenty of industry connections, for example.

    Loved your profile. I think it fits perfectly for Kellogg. Your end goal of being in HC also makes a lot of sense. One think I would say is if you can refine your career goals to have some specific answers, it will add a lot of value. Solid EC and bike ride is awesome. I might try for Wharton/HBS/MIT Sloan too if possible. Good luck!
