Hi
Jjww2098,
Thanks for sharing your profile. Your GPA and GMAT both look great. I'm glad that you have a banking analyst role lined up; especially good if it's with a well-known, prestigious firm. The investment club experience sounds interesting, as deferred programs do care a lot about campus leadership. Hopefully, you can show strong leadership examples and impact through that role.
If anything worries me, it's that your path seems a little more traditional than these deferred programs are designed for. Maybe the military experience is something you can emphasize to stand out, or maybe there are other aspects you're not able to go into here. Also, just know that these deferred programs are super competitive, so if it doesn't work out now, you could still be a strong applicant in a few years.
Hope that helps!
Kate
