Excellent academics (school and undergrad). Applying with only 2 years of work experience at application and 3 years at matriculation. However, current role has lot of ownership and leadership.
Also leading a social impact project under World Economic Forum.
Future Industry:
I am currently a project manager in the Finance industry (launching new products, regions etc.) - want to continue in the same industry.
Should I retake the GMAT? Any other schools that give less priority to number of years of work experience? Anything else i can do to make my profile better?

7 years of work experience, wanted to move into Product Management in a top Tech company after MBA, Tuck didn't give me any money, but based on my research, it seems like their student recruit better in Tech industry, whilst Fuqua sends many of their students to Dell/Adobe (tech companies that I'm not that excited about). Went to ASW at Fuqua, really like the atmosphere, and their HSM programme, the only concern is their low alum response rate, less prestigious compare to Tuck. Any advice would be helpful for me!!!
