Hey everyone......m new here.....i just wanted to get some guidance regarding the programmes i should opt for....i am an indian...i am a final year IIT delhi student.....i was enrolled in a dual degree here so would be done with my masters next year.......i have a GMAT score of 760 but a very low gpa of 6.1/10 . Have completed three internships( all core related) , one in IOCL and 2 abroad( 1 each in canada and germany) . Also i have got good extra currics.... would such things cover up for my below average gpa??....
Also i wanted to know about the masters in management course being offered in various European b-schools i.e. HEC, ESCP, RSM, Oxford etc....what are the job prospects of such a course? and would doing such a course right after graduation be better than waiting for 3 yrs and then doing an MBA.....i want to live abroad only.....and with my GPA it is highly improbable i would get a good enough job here from the campus......and thus i dont want to wait for three years.....please help me.....
Any help would be appreciated.....thanx in advance .....

Your GMAT is above the middle 80 % range for all the schools you mentioned. You may search "low gpa" on this forum on how to minimize the impact of your GPA.Typically a high GMAT would offset a lower GPA - other things being equal
You would be compared with other candidates with a similar profile ( IT, Male, Indian and work experience etc) . In your case you can pursue a masters in management, but starting salaries are typically around 50-60 k (USD). I am not a big fan of these middle of the road programs. I am assuming that you're good at math, so why not Finance or Financial Engineering ?
I would recommend applying to the LSE (london school of economics) in the UK, in the US you can take a look a MS Finance or MS quant finance programs at Washington U (Olin), BU (mathematical finance) , CMU, Princeton and Baruch.
