Hi derekjbj, For your application, understand that admissions teams are looking for candidates with leadership experience and who have made an impact. I recommend you read this case study of an Indian engineer who was accepted into Columbia, Tuck, and MIT: http://www.stacyblackman.com/comprehens ... ies/case2/It should provide insight on how you can frame your application. Hope this was of help. Cheers, Conrad and the Stacy Blackman Team

Stacy
Thanks for the response. For your reference, I am applying to a part-time MBA program, and not a full time (case study on your website is of a full time MBA applicant). is there a difference,
when applying to full time against part time programs?

Hi derekjbj, The primary difference is that admissions at part-time MBA programs will focus more on your work experience than on your GMAT score and undergraduate record. Best, Conrad and the Stacy Blackman Team
