大家好！我这样的背景有没有可能申请到美国Top20 or 英国Top3 的学校：
1.本科（非重点）GPA 3.16（标准算法，而常见算法只有2.4 不知道美国的学校采取哪种算法？）
2.Master（香港城大Accounting related programme）上半学期GPA3.5（不知道申请时master的成绩是否可以弥补本科gpa的不足？）
3. ACCA 准会员， ICAEW（英格兰及威尔士注册会计师协会）学员
4，1年四大工作经验，两年自主创业经历
5，GMAT 700(expected)
6，无牛推

其实本人很想读风险管理相关的硕士专业，希望能有XDJM推荐学校！不胜感激！

Hey there—it would be my pleasure to answer each of your questions individually!
1. In the US we use a 4.0-based system. And a 3.16 is just fine—not ideal, but schools in the US and Europe wont be too focused on this number—so long as you are at 3.0 or better, they will look instead to your GMAT.
2. This is just fine! Yes, your better grades in the masters program WILL make up for your lower grades. Nice job!
3. This will help indeed—international certifications of this sort demonstrate both intellectual capacity, and an international mindset.
4. Very cool stuff—I like it very much. Here you have the best of both worlds—the big name of a huge firm, PLUS the benefits of entrepreneurship.
5. This will be your biggest challenge by far. For Chinese applicants, to reach a top ten business school, the GMAT score will need to be just a bit higher. For a top 10-20 program, you will be well in the range. But top ten will be a stretch, with a 720. Id shoot for top twenty.
6. You will need two recommenders at least—and if they aren’t that strong, it is okay. Just use someone who has supervised you directly if you can.

I would suggest top 20 schools—but top 10 will be a stretch. Good luck!
