Thanks for your reply. My pubs are in management journals. US is obviously where the most jobs are, but I am not dead set on living in one area. I've noticed schools like INSEAD and HEC in France seem to have good OT scholars. in the US you are right, it seems it is places like Stanford, NYU, MIT, etc. where people do a lot of OT work. All of those schools I just mentioned would be amazing places to land. But I can imagine getting lost in the pile with subpar GPA and GMAT. I should mention that I can also continue on where I have done my MSc with a PhD. The schools reputation is not as good as any of the schools I've mentioned, which I am worried would hurt me on the job market, but I think in some ways I could be at an advantage for publishing because my environment would stay the same? If that makes sense.

Hello, I am hoping to get some input on what type of schools I could apply to. Test Scores (GMAT): 700 Undegrad GPA: 2.85 (1 really bad year, trended up after but alas... this was a long time ago). Graduate GPA: 3.7 MA, Economic Sociology (Top 20 school in Asia), 3.7 Msc in Business Research (Top 20 school in Europe) Research Experience: 2 publications (B+/A- level journals), 1 as first author Teaching Experience: N/A Work Experience: Several years consulting Concentration Applying to: Management, Organizational Theory / Economic Sociology Number of programs planned to apply to: 10? Dream Schools: No idea Other Questions: What made you want to pursue a PhD? I truly love doing research and being in an academic environment. Questions or concerns you have about your profile? Low u-grad GPA. Average GMAT. Any additional specific questions you may have: I am just really not sure what level I should target? I am open to anywhere in the world (North America, Asia, Europe)
