Hi VeritasPrep,
I am planning to apply in round 1 this year for a full time MBA. Your comments on my chances would be appreciated. Here are my details-
27 year old Indian male
Target Schools: Stanford, Tuck, Fuqua, MIT Sloan, Michigan Ross, Darden, Kenan Flagler
Interests in fields post graduation: Consulting, General Management
GMAT:
1st attempt: 660 (Q48, V32) in June, 2016
2nd attempt: 720 (Q51,V35) in July 2016
3rd attempt: Scheduled for 28th August, 2016
Undergraduate:
B.Tech (ECE), VIT University, Vellore (India) (#1 Private University in India)
Graduated in 2011
CGPA 3.8 (8.86/10 original scale), Among top 35 students graduating. Was selected for Ericsson Campus Connect Program.
Work Experience:
Prior to graduation:
Worked with my father and brothers for 8 years during school senior years and under-graduation years to run our own business to provide consulting to MSc students in writing their thesis and doing the typing work involved in it. We used that money to pay for me and my brothers' undergraduate studies. It was a very successful venture but was laborious and required lot of time and effort.
After graduation:
I have 5 years of experience in the IT service industry. I am certified professional in HighJump WMS Software. I have been working in the Supply chain domain for more than 3.5 years now. Have worked with clients such as Vitacost.com, Sears Holding Corporation, Mr. Price, Woolworths, etc. I have 2 months of international experience. Went to Durban, South Africa and visited 4 client warehouses to see how the software we implement actually affects the functioning of the warehouses. My work permit for South Africa is in processing, and if the Visa is cleared, I would be moving to Durban in September.
Any input would be appreciated!
