<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Am applying for MPA/ MPP. I have 5 years of relevant experience, having worked as a Consultant to governments of 3 countries and several bilateral/ multilateral organisations.</p>
<p>I'm giving the GRE this month and expect a 720 - 740 Q and 740 V.</p>
<p>Thing is, my graduation scores are poor (I got the equivalent of a 3 GPA), though my Masters (in Business Administration) scores are good.</p>
<p>With a good SOP and letters of recommendation, what are my chances of getting into the top MPA schools (e.g. Columbia, Kennedy School in Harvard)?</p>
