Hi
ARINGO Team,
My name is Miran and I would like to request a quick look at my profile to see if I'm a good candidate for an MBA.
I recently took the GRE and scored a 162 and 161 for verbal and quant, with a 5 in the writing section.
I did my Bachelor's in Chemical Engineering at the National University of Singapore, but graduated with a low GPA of 2.76/5.
Since graduating in 2016, I've been working as a project engineer in a large multinational engineering and construction firm, where I have steadily taken on more leadership roles.
In my first project, I was entrusted with the care of six key project critical documents, tasked with coordinating several high-level channels of communication, and managed a large contractor to a safe, timely, and under-budget completion.
In my second project, I was tasked with coordinating the implementation of a novel cloud-based engineering environment, which required constant work with the Thai office, the cloud vendor, and the client.
I am currently on my third project, where I have successfully implemented a different cloud-based construction mobility software, which included the development of procedures, training of personnel, and coordination with stakeholders of all levels of authority (up to project director levels). Presently, I am leading a team of 10 persons from the various Engineering, Construction Supervision, Contractor, and client teams. This sub-project requires me to control costs, prepare schedules, coordinate permitting, and also do engineering work. I have also conducted field supervision works.
I have taken and achieved my Project Management Professional certification, and am planning to take other project management courses to Keep improving myself.
I'm terms of extra curriculars, I started my college football team, and am one of the organisers of the Singapore Poetry Slam, the longest running local spoken word event in Singapore.
I was wanting to apply to places like Cass, Manchester, maybe LBS or Imperial?
Please take a look and let me know what you might think of my candidature chances.
I have fairly strong referee letters, from my project manager and a regional VP, which I believe should help.
For additional information, I am a Chinese male Singaporean, 30 years old with 4 years working experience in mid-level management.
I have some questions, if I may:
1) An honest opinion and review of my profile
2) What can I do to improve my case
3) Which UK business schools should i be looking at?
Please take a look and let me know
