大家看我有戏吗？

G：750， T should be able to be waived although I got 653 4 years ago. undergraduate-GPA is 3.4-3.5 from a 2-tier University in China. I have already got a Chemistry Master from a US 2-tier University, and GPA is 3.4. Only 1 year w/e in an international manufacturing company, which is not famous to all but is well known in our field. Position is the lowest, research chemist. No management and finance background in current company at all, some leadership in Under though. Any chance to be got into top 20 ? Any suggestions, examples and encourage? Thanks in advance!

is your w/e in USA? is it possible to move up at your current job if you are working now? have you done any significant research in the past? Is there any top20 school in your state?

Yes, I am in New York now. We have business in Asia including China and hongkong. The only advantage I can take is that someday I might be sent back either as representatives or as technical support. What can be called significant research? No paper published (shame on me)yet. NYU, Columbia, and many more are not far away from my location. So what?

you'd better go for part-time mba.

here is the info that I know 1. if it is a research department in US, adcom knows the system, management position is hard to achieve. 2. if you do not have paper. well, you may have to explain it in your essay. 3. usually part-time program has lower bars and less competition. So for the info you post it here. I think you should be able to get in a top20 part-time program (i.e. NYU part-time) with a decent essay explaining a few things.

Why don't you wait for a couple of years, one year's exp is definitely on the low end. Every year, there are plenty of people with research background got in the top schools. It depends on how you spin it.
