Greetings,
I would like to apply for fall of 2008 but I may decide to extend it to 2009 becuase, I want to sumbit my best possible score since I have a low GPA. My target schools are USC, UCLA and LMU part time programs.
First, I'm 30 years old and a minority with a 2.78 GPA Univeristy and a Cumulative GPA of 2.67 from Cal State Univeristy Fullerton in Southern California.
I have worked full time throughout my educational experince and have paid part of my education. I began in community college in 1996 and eventually transferred to a CAl State in 2000 and graduated in 2004 in Political Science and a minor in Criminal Justice.
Since 1997, I have worked in the field of Transportation and Logistcs for a privately owned company for most of my young adult life. I have over 11 years of work experience and have moved my way up the ladder to supervisor (3 years) and my current managment position of 3 years plus.
Also, I have recently volunteered my labor to help decorate the Rose Parade float for "One Legacy" organ donation and have attended
"Aids Walk" to raise money. I've also been active in donating my own moeny to local schools so they can help purchase educational materials for young students.
As for my GMAT, I have a two more weeks to go until I finish the course and have taken my second practice test in which I scored a 520. I'm aiming to score around 650 - 700.
With all my experience coombined with GMAT and academics, what would be my bottom score to get into my first two choice schools? Any other advice and information will be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Jason
