Hi Devd,

Our blog is chock full of DOs and DON'Ts, check it out at at:

Your profile seems competitive at the schools you've selected. My biggest piece of advice for you would be sure to clearly define your goals (how has your work to date influenced what your post-MBA goals are?), and differentiate yourself from other engineering candidates with stories of leadership, professional development, and community involvement where applicable.
Best of luck,

Daniel Richards

Hi Devd,

Given your background I think you're looking in the right range of schools, around the top-40.
