Big tech or MBB is a terrible ST goal. Make it clearer. You’re already a Product Manager. What is the true benefit of an MBA? Build a better story of how you get from point A to point B.
Also, your GRE is comparatively low compared to averages for most of those schools. Highly recommend considering a retake to get above a 330.

Just choose one and build a story around it. As an interviewer, I’m not going to confirm if you actually go through with what you say. I want to know if you’ve thought through what you want to do and a have a realistic path to get there. So how does your past experience + MBA get you to your ST. And how does that eventually get you to your LT. It doesn’t have to all be crystal clear, but it needs to show that you understand career paths
The restaurant business is awesome. Definitely play that up. That’s an edge. Highlight whatever input you gave.
Not tryna throw shade, but how are you 27 with 3 YOE? What happened to the other 3 years?
No worries man. Am a september baby and came to u.s at l7 so the cut off was awkward, soi was like the oldest in my class always fhen finished college year late because worked so much building my resturant business and taking care of my disabled/sick parents, plus did 2 years of communty college and not all credits transferred when i went to universty so had some retakes as well. So graduated, fall 2021, started work jan 2022. Turning 27 in like 60 days.
I see.
I think you have a really cool story here. You’ve suffered some hardship. And really shown grit and the ability to be a self starter which is huge - not something other people can just put together in 6 months.
But if I put myself in the adcom shoes, I’m not seeing anything I can point to for academic ability. 3.6 from a state school is fine but not great. Unless your major was theoretical physics or something. And 315 GRE is straight up bad. It’s well below average for all of your target schools. So I’m not getting the sense you’re going to apply yourself well to classes here. And east coast south Asian Americans in tech are not a demo any program is short on…
So I think you really need to retake the GRE. You hear that on this bowl way too much, but I am sure it’s true here. And/or find some program you can do to show your chops (PT masters in data science, or get distinction on HBX Core or something).
Good luck!
