Thank you! This is tough to answer as there are many factors to consider, but generally, I would suggest raising the 710 GMAT if you apply to top US schools. Canada schools will also be a good choice, but I would say because you are both coming from a competitive demographic, it is best that you apply to a diverse mix of schools - some top ranked, some lesser ranked. Good luck!
#9 gets it!
Chris you need to synthesis the leanings here and have a roadmap. I think the key takeaway should be 1) apply to top U.S. schools (S16 for you and top 10, probably H/S for the Significant other)
2) be prepared for tough recruiting but understand it’s all possible - I have a few colleagues with ONLY HK/China work experience joining McKinsey
3) start prep now!!
