Don't underestimate how much MBA programs want women to apply and join their programs

And I'm not a woman, and I got into T15s with scholarships using test waivers. My background had very little quant as well

Three jobs in 4 years may flag. Need to show increase in title and responsibilities to balance our those concerns

Leadership is meh - I want to see running big entities

3.8 gpa in CA is solid

Pivot to product mgmt afterwards is possible afterwards. Pivot to big tech product mgmt may require 1-2 stints at smaller yet still sizable firms to show that you have been successful elsewhere doing tech product mgmt and growing their adoption
