Profile evaluation Request
.
Hi All,
I am applying to very few schools and all three Canadian schools. Kindly evaluate my profile.
Career Snapshot :
Class 10 - 85%
Class 12- 77%
Graduation: Mechanical engg. ( 7.6 CGPA out of 10)
GMAT : 620 ( AWA - 4 , IR - 5 ,
Quant- 50 Verbal - 23 )
Overall Work Experience ( 8 years ) : Implementing SAP Supply Chain Planning Solutions for manufacturing industries.
Currently working as a Senior Analyst , in one of the Big Four ( PWC)
Query : Will the lower score in Verbal be a problem or do they care about the overall GMAT . ( Saw Average gmat = 628 and minimum= 580 )
Generally all b-schools prefer a balanced score. But there are always exceptions and you can be one.
You could write IELTS to compensate and put that into your application. An IELTS overall score of 7.5 with no section less than 7 should be good I think.
In my opinion, the current verbal score will not be a killer, but will definitely catch the attention of the adcom. What are your thoughts on taking up the GMAT again?
You career looks good, but what about the extra-curriculars?
See if JMSB is doing a tour in India, as meeting them in person will give you a better idea and confidence. They might like you and choose to ignore the verbal score.
