Hi Everyone, I’ll really appreciate if any of you can evaluate my profile please.
29 - F
Grade 10th: 9.8 CGPA CBSE
Grade 12th: 91.7% (PCM + Economics)
Graduation -BA Economics Hons University of Delhi , 2013-2016 ~76% (1st division)
Masters in Financial Economics ( 2016-2018) from tier 1 college
GMAT Score (FE): 645

Profile summary:

Work Ex:
Worked for fortune 500 Fintech Company for 4 years as sr. strategy analyst. And prior to that at another fortune 500 as a data analyst. One caveat is I am currently on a career break from past 1 year due to certain VISA complications in US ( had to move for a year due to personal reasons)
Have 2 research internships and a thesis in developmental economics during my masters.

Here I am volunteering with an NGO (event management and marketing) and also at a local guild (data management and analytics)
EC:
I have done multiple participations in theatre/dance in school (though that was in SCHOOL, long back)
I led NSS in my undergraduate college and held post for 2 years as creative head as well as organizational secretary
not so much EC during masters

I have volunteered numerous times all through my undergrad masters as well as jobs.

Masters CGPA : 8.3
Hello schat103,

Thanks for writing in.

You have a below average GMAT score; however, a set of essays that adequately highlight your professional achievements as well as your need for the PGP (including what you wish to do after) can help turn things in your favour. The gap too will need to be explained in an appropriate manner.

In a nutshell, a slightly better GMAT score would have helped, overall; however, if it is not possible for you to go ahead with a retake, just spend your time focusing on creating as compelling an application as you can. Make sure you highlight your achievements, potential for leadership, and your intent to keep doing things even as you are on a career break.

The following video will help with the essays bit:


Thanks.

Emailed the PGP team to ask about the expected R1 result date. Will let everybody know.

If somebody has already done this please feel free to share.
Thanks! Do let us know what’s the response.
I spoke to the ISB team post my interviews and they said Dec mid. But a lot of folks have heard Nov end. Hence the confusion. Hope the latter is true.

Heard back from the team. They confirmed Nov end.

In that case can we assume that this weekend’s interviews will be the last ones?

My status today has changed from Verified to Shortlisting in Process and there’s an empty row with interview schedule link. Did everyone with Shortlisting in Process have this row, or I shouldn’t be reading too much into it for now?

I wrote to admissions team today requesting them to confirm if more interview invites will be rolled out for delhi location along with confirming the date for announcement of results for R1. Got a reply mail “ Kindly wait to hear from us”.
Have absolutely no clue what to make of it.

I received a reply wherein they said "The interview process will continue until November 25, 2024. Kindly wait for an update."

Hello, Can someone please evaluate my profile -

10th - 9.8 CGPA
12th - 92%
Graduation : Economics, Delhi University - 77%
Masters: Economics, MSE -8.3 CGPA
Work ex - Data Analyst + Assistant manager - Senior Business analyst in fortune 500
5 years of work ex.

On a career break for past 1 year as had to move to USA for personal reasons.

GMAT Score - 645
Decent acads. Work ex also seems broadly good, although would love to know the nature of your role for an objective assessment. GMAT score is on the lower side. You would also need to have some story ready for the last one year of career break - need not be monetizable engagements, could be hobbies or passion projects as well. Would also need to know your post MBA goals for a detailed evaluation. Feel free to reach out to us at Preppie (https://www.preppie.in) for a deeper discussion
