MBA 2009

by Dick Fuld Fri Nov 14, 2008 5:13 pm

Hi Alex,

Please evaluate my candidacy for Fall 2009 entrance into some top MBA programs. A few things about me, namely:

Reason for wanting to pursue an MBA: I lost my job due to the market downturn.

Some accomplishments:
Oversaw the expansion of arguably the most successful bond trading business, ever.
Actively involved in high-level decision making for the bank.
Expert at risk-management issues (seriously, I am).
Successfuly profited from in-the-money stock options provided to me from the bank.

GMAT score: 520

My target schools are Harvard, Columbia, Emory, Penn State, Florida, Arizona State, and the University of Phoenix Online.

What are my chances? Am I competitive enough this year or should I keep working and wait it out?

Thanks a lot for your time and input,

- Dick
