Howdy Ags,

I'm a military officer within two years of separating. My time has been good but I am coming to terms with the fact that this isn't my forever career.

I'm highly interested in getting a FT MBA with my GI Bill (100%). I have taken the GMAT (focus edition) and got a 645, which is equivalent to a 700 on the old version. I think I have a solid shot at t25 schools and maybe an outside shot at M7.

My target schools are currently Ross, Darden, Fuqua and Mccombs.

I'm putting this post out there to see if I can connect with any Ags or veterans who have been through this process to talk about school applications and potential careers after an MBA. I'm not looking to get into IB, could see myself in consulting or real estate.

Thanks!
Ronnie Woodard

I haven't gone through the process myself, nor am I a veteran, but I currently work in the marketing department at Darden and would be happy to try and put you in touch with someone on our side who may be able to answer any questions you may have. You may have already seen our military page, but linking it just in case.

Shoot me a DM with some basic information and I can try to make a connection if you're interested!

Shoot me a PM. I am not a vet but went to T25 FT and had many vet classmates so I got to see how they worked the transition.

Sitreps to Steercos is what you're looking for. Google - forums, meetings, strategies for acceptance, social media, job listings etc. He's a former Army Officer.

I'm almost a decade out from my MBA.

But, CIVE > Kenan-Flagler > Consulting (S&, EYP, A&M). I'm pretty jaded on consulting, but I know the gig, firm/career dynamics/trajectory and the $$$ potential. Happy to connect if interested.
