Is T15 attainable with a 710 GMAT (balanced Q/V), 3.8 GPA at a T10 public school (econ/accounting), 2 years in B4 audit / 2 years in B4 TS (FDD), white male? Some notable EC include being a former D1 athlete and currently giving free lessons to youth in disadvantaged communities. I feel like I might have solid chances for Darden, Fuqua, Ross, Johnson, and Anderson though a reality check is greatly appreciated. Determined to break into IB so will focus my post mba goals on that.

Absolutely! You have a great list of schools. Maybe add Kenan-Flagler as a 'likely' that would place you into IB

Definitely strong chance at each of those. I had 700 GMAT, 3.6 GPA, and lower ranked undergrad. Applied to same set of schools in a recent year. Was accepted to Anderson, Ross, and Johnson and ended up at Anderson. WL at Fuqua (didn’t get in). Didn’t apply to Darden. Best of luck and feel free to DM if you want to chat about the process, happy to help.

Yes. A 710 got me a full ride at a T20 and a 1/2 ride at T15.

Red bell peppers are roasted in the oven until sweet. It is then blended with caramelized onions, garlic, red pepper flakes, sun dried tomato paste, and cream into a silky, smooth and velvety sauce. Finish the sauce with a knob of butter and coat your pasta. Cavatappi works well here. Don’t forget to shave a little Pecorino Romano
