<p>My school limits the number of applications to 6, so I have to pick schools wisely. I have decided to apply to schools where I have a chance because I don’t want to end up being rejected from all schools. Do I have a decent enough shot to warrant applying?</p>

<p>With so many strong leadership roles, I think you’d be a great candidate for a top business program like Wharton. Also 4 languages –> definitely look into the huntsman program, you would be a perfect fit</p>
<p>^ Thank you very much.</p>
<p>I would definitely apply to Huntsman. You might want to apply ED to increase your chances because the competition increases for people who are Asian.</p>
<p>How can a school limit you to 6 applications…? Do they even have the authority to do so?</p>
<p>Communism isn’t fun.</p>
<p>I actually do not want to apply to Huntsman. I am considering M&T though. I don’t think my chances are too great for M&T.</p>
<p>One word of advice: my personal belief is that m&t is more suitable for those who are more interested in the engineering side and want a business background to help them through. If you have it the other way around, may not be worth it to pursue a second degree in engineering as it won’t help that much for business careers. That said, there is a slight boost from the prestige of the program but how much an advantage that will give you considering you’ll result in a lower gpa is debatable. Pure business, best to spend time learning the ropes of what you’ll be doing on the job (e.g. actually spend time learning to invest if going into sales and trading). </p>
<p>Btw, your situation sounds very familiar to me. Do you happen to go to school in Canada? More specifically vancouver? One of my friends last year went through the same situation, a number of loopholes you can work through if you happen to go to the same school as him :D.</p>
