Hi all!
Foremost I would like to thank all the GMATClub community for creating such a vibrant community with endless valuable information. I utilized this forum during my GMAT preparation and now I need some help regarding my chances in an MBA program in US.
I feel really lost, since I am extremely eager to enroll in an MBA program given a few restrictions, and practically there is no one around to guide me.
I would like to briefly introduce myself:
-Industrial Eng. from reputable Tech.Uni in Turkey (GPA 3.44)
-Study abroad with 11 courses in "one" semester - Vienna Tech. (GPA 3.5)
-Work Exp: 1 year internship in Mercedes-Benz (Supply Chain); 10 months in a large conglomerate, reporting to the CEO (handled significant projects); currently 2 months into my finance post in Siemens (Here is one area I need immediate advise
)
-Considerable non-profit work in global youth organizations, -2 Publications in journals
-720 GMAT (Q50,V37)
-TOEFL IBT 109
Given my background, I would like to list a couple of bus-school options in which I may be granted full/partial scholarship via merit or GA/TA.
I will most probably hear that I do not have enough post-grad w.exp, by the time of program start I will have 2 years full time w.exp.
The main things I should actually clear in my mind are that I will possibly cannot afford a top 10-15 b.school, hence I will be applying to schools who won't automatically reject me due to inadequate work exp. and at the same time, provide me with enough funding.
I should also state that I am not looking forward to being recruited by IB;MC or PE. My goal is to work as an analyst in Cleantech/renew. energy.
I would really appreciate school suggestions and a brief profile evaluation. I have no clue where to start, and the international deadlines are approaching damn fast.
I sincerely appreciate your help and looking forward to receiving your kind suggestions except "work a couple more years"![Very Happy :-D]()

My current list looks like:
Gatech, UCLA, UCSD, UC Irvine, Purdue etc (generally schools with strong engineering rankings)
Thanks again!!
