Profile evaluation request (deferred programs)

­Hi! I'm looking for a profile evaluation for deferred admissions this year:

Internship and/or work experience
Almost 5 years of part-time working experience in marketing (all 5 in Italy), of which 4 in consulting. All my experience is in small-size companies (this might be my main weakness). On the other hand, this allowed me to take much more responsibilities and develop entrepreneurship and expertise in several industries and functions. I also have entrepreneurship experience, having had a leadership role for one year in a tech startup that I've cofounded.

Leadership experience:

Career Goals:
My goal after the MBA is to run my own company or to work in venture capital / private equity.

Unique background factors:
- A lot of work experience, considering that I'm a deferred applicant,
- Entrepreneurial experience (Start-up and VC),
- Double master's degree in two different countries (US and Italy),
- Maybe my nationality (Italian), I'm not sure.

Essays:
Essays will be focused on entrepreneurship, start-up experience, and the fact that I worked during all my studies to grow professionally and be financially independent.

I'm overall proud of what I have done, but these schools (and the deferred admission programs in particular!) are so competitive. Do you think I have a shot?

Thank you in advance!
