<p>to be honest. I am in an exact similar spot to you. My gpa (3.3) and SAT (1980) are higher but your EC’s definitely beat mine. What is your school gpa out of? My school’s (international) gpa is out 4.3 </p>

<p>my ec’s include
selling a online fashion retailing website that I sold for 10,000 dollars last year
president of a fashion club
president of the school business club
+8% profit on my stocks </p>

<p>I have similar letters of rec too…

Babson professor
Senior vice president of Formosa Plastic (An asia S&P 500 company)
CEO/Founder of IMI groups (PR Marketing firm)</p>

<p>where basically on the same page and i’m assuming we are both very interested in business to the point it has hurt our academics a little</p>

<p>best of luck
Im applying early d
you? </p>

<p>we both have an advantage i guess in how business heavy we are. Something that babson looks for</p>

<p>Yeah I am applying early decision too, best of luck! That is the thing, our passion for business ultimately drags down our school work because, well as for me, I just want to get out into the real world and start my own business incubator. Hopefully we both get in, Goodluck!</p>

<p>I know this isn’t very timely. But as a recent graduate with experience in the admissions office, I would definitely recommend the OP to apply. While you stats maybe low Babson does take a holistic approach and they will love your interest in them and in E-ship. Good Luck.</p>
