Hi everyone. I have a gmat score of 700 (q49, v37). Experience in IT for 4 years as a software engineer. Xth: 85, X11: 72, B-Tech: 7.53. Short term goal is to transition into product management. Could any one evaluate my chances for the isb pgp?
Hi
harshilNori,
From the first look itself, your profile looks well-groomed and competitive. Your CGPA of 7.53 and GMAT score of 700 collectively showcase your academic prowess which will definitely work in your favour.
Coming to your work experience, you have a total of 4years of work experience in the IT field which is again decent enough but you should keep in mind that you will be facing a lot of competition from applicants who have worked in big four companies like KPMG, EY, DELOITTE and PWC. Nevertheless, if you don't have any big brand names under your profile, you can compensate for the same by highlighting the kind of projects you handled, the value you added to these projects, the skills you gained and the major takeaways you were able to attain throughout your work experience. Showcasing the intensity of your work experience would bring you at par with your competition.
Here you have not mentioned any details regarding your extracurricular activities or participation that hold equal importance as schools are looking for a holistically developed profile. When it comes to depicting your extracurricular activities, you should always focus on highlighting how you went above and beyond in your endeavors and how you will be a great value addition to the school. To give you a brief idea of how to go about with this, you can maybe talk about any CSR activities you were part of and any voluntary certifications or courses taken up to upskill yourself. This part of your profile will basically highlight your soft skills paired with the socially responsible aspect of your personality which can ultimately vouch for your ability to be a great future leader.
Moving on, since you have targeted ISB which falls under the dream category, your chances of acceptance stand around 50%. Nonetheless, you can further boost your chances of acceptance by presenting a very strong application that will help you differentiate yourself from the applicant pool. Your application would highlight your profile USP’s and overshadow any particular weaknesses in your profile. Moreover, you need to ensure that your LORs and Resume, equally depict the strengths of your profile.
