【MBA申请】18 Fall求定位，请各位大神帮忙指点，拜谢！

MP137

诸位大神，诚心请教关于MBA学校的定位和建议。

本人职场小白，工作经验2年左右（18年入学即3年工作经验），现在新加坡一家大的Bulge Bracket做PE
之前实习也是在BB 有Corp Fin和Markets的实习经验
已经积累了一定的transaction experience 预计年底可以升职
推荐信可以拿到Managing Director级别老板的
新加坡本科毕业，GPA 4.8/5 GMAT 740 TOEFL 112

申请MBA主要是1）想去美国换个环境 2）工作需求希望学习更多关于公司架构，管理和运营的知识
希望留美，首选PE类的相关工作，对Management Consulting也有兴趣。
抱着Dream Big的心态想冲刺M7，希望得到各位前辈的指点和帮助。

有如下几个问题还请大家赐教：
1. 两年的工作经验是否太短？算硬伤么？尤其是对于M7的学校？
2. 希望把申请的学校控制在5个左右（不好意思麻烦老板写太多推荐信），目标Harvard / Wharton / Booth / Columbia / MIT / NYU - 这个目标是否合理？还有其他PE相关的MBA项目推荐么？
3. 志愿者经历是否必须？大学有很多志愿者经历，但工作后的志愿者经历比较少了，是否算硬伤？
4. 老板的推荐信给力的话是否可以适当弥补工作经验不足的硬伤？

问题比较多，还望各位大神帮忙解答！多谢? 祝大家都有好offer！

谢谢！

咖啡印象

1. 两年的工作经验确实比较短，大多数M7申请人都有着3 yrs+的工作经验

3.  离R1申请还有段时间，可以考虑再做做志愿者

Hey there,
so from what I can see here all the basis of your profile is great  - GPA, GMAT, work experience, industry, employer are all good. If you also come from a top school, that’s even better.

I would say, yes you should wait one more year. Because your PE experience at a bulge bracket bank will be more valuable than your big 4 experience, and you want to give yourself a solid bit of experience in the industry which will also make it easier for you to find a job when you leave.

You can also use the time to:
- do more volunteer work
- do more leadership
- get involved in more activities
- visit your target schools
- network at your target schools.

all of which will greatly help.

I think you an aim for M7 schools with some schools int he S16 in your safe schools - like NYU, Johnson, Tepper, all of which are good finance schools in the S16.

I hope this helps!
