Folks,
Not sure if this is the correct thread to post this. But I am looking to apply in R1 for Cornell AMBA for 2009. Wanted to see if you guys have some insights in terms of what are my chances based on my profile below. I dont think I fit the "ideal" profile for this class but I am very interested to take this program and want to see what are my chances of getting admitted.
Age=34 (35 by the time i join)
Undergrad GPA = 3.8
Grad GPA = 3.5
GMAT = 710
Work Experience = 12+ years
Profile: M-I-T (Male Indian Techie)
Current Role/Title: Project Manager, Vice President (Technology department) at big financial services company
From what you guys know do you think I might stand a chance to get into the program ? I am looking for furthering my career and possibly grow in my role.
Any insights/pointers would be really helpful. Are there any dedicated forums/threads out there that discuss about the Cornell AMBA ?
Much thanks in advance.
neelesh,
I don't know about dedicated Cornell AMBA threads, I assume here is as good a spot as any.
I talked recently with someone at Cornell, who broke it down their parameters VERY roughly as:
700+ GMAT
6-10 years good work experience
A prior advanced degree
The admissions people at Cornell have been extremely helpful answering every one of the many questions I've had while I've been applying. I would suggest contacting the office of admissions and asking.
