Hi! Your GMAT score is strong, but given the applicant pool you are up against for the schools where you want to go, you might want to consider taking it again to see if you can boost it into the mid-700s. What will be key to making you a stand-out applicant for these business schools is your ability to showcase your professional accomplishments, not responsibilities. In addition, most of the extra-curricular activities that you list here date back to college. What are you doing now? Being involved in activities outside of work is important to your application.

Best of luck,

Rachel Beck
