Hi! As you know, business schools aren't just focused on one criteria. They look for candidates with strong scores, work experience and outside activities. Your GMAT score is within the range of many of the top schools. As for your work experience, what will be key is to highlight your professional accomplishments, not just your responsibilities. That will help distinguish you from other applicants. You seem to not have any current outside activities, something that you might want to bulk up in the coming months. Given your age, college activities will look dated.

Best of luck,

Rachel Beck
