I have scored a 690 in GMAT (Q50 and Q34). My profile is as follows:
I have a NGO of mine.
I have three internships in EY, J.K. Cements and Goldman sachs
I have co-founded two societies in my college and been in Core committee of the other two.
I have organised the biggest food fest of my university.
I have written a research paper.
I have also attended an international conference

So with these points and score, do I have the opportunity to crack Harvard 2+2 or Stanford deferred MBA?

Are you in your final year of college? That's a eligibility criterion.

Hi there,

You are demonstrating what these schools like to see from a leadership perspective, but the GMAT score is low. I would suggest retaking the GMAT and aiming for a 740+ to be competitive for these schools given your demographic. Also, I don't know what your GPA is, but that will also be an important criterion for these schools.

I hope this is helpful - if you would like to discuss further through a free consultation, feel free to reach out at https://www.ivygroupe.com/contact.

Best,
Shaifali

Hi there,
If you are considering programs for college seniors or those that allow deferred enrollement, you should also consider Yale's Silver Scholars Program and Darden’s future year admissions program. For more details please visit https://aringo.com/Deferred-Enrollment/
We’d be happy to discuss this with you in more detail if you’d like to register on ARINGO.com for a complimentary profile evaluation. Or, check out our free admissions chances calculator! Good luck!
