MBA Candidate: 3.4, 700 GMAT & Hispanic [Can He Get Into Harvard, MIT, Duke Fuqua in 2020?]

Can this cancer-surviving volunteer firefighter who works for a startup get into one of his target schools? In this episode, Poets&Quants Editor-In-Chief John A. Byrne and HBS Guru Sandy Kreisberg discuss how this candidate's background applies to the odds of getting in. Sandy likes him but his unabated cynicism makes him drop some hard truth at the end. John thinks that Andrew should apply to Kellogg or Darden.
