I haven’t really done anything on my apps yet but still pushing for r1 deadlines. Why do you think not feasible?

Top 20 non ivy, engineering 3.54/4, 760 GMAT. Decent ECs and story, but nothign spectacular

My view is you’ll have a shot at M7, with best odds at the bottom half of the 7 (aka HSW will be tough).

You’re better off waiting until your app is good. R1 is better but not at the expense of a crappy essay

White male Deloitte tech without GSAP here and got into C when applying in January. You can do it, just got to network and have the right story. When applying R2, you should showcase your success from Sept-Dec since that’ll show that you are applying later to have your strongest application vs just not prioritizing that school’s app
