Hi folks,

Just want to take a suggestion.
I have 615 FE.
*Education*
2018 Aerospace BTech graduate from SRM University- 8.96/10
*Work*
Did a small venture of mine in NorthEast India's schools for activity based learning for about an year for which I was incubated and awarded a small grant too. And post that worked in a few start ups where my role involved client engagement, stake holder management, market penetration, account renewal & retention, did 0 to 1 market expansion in country like Ghana,Nigeria, Kenya, Bangladesh as a project lead.
*Extra curricular/Volunteering*- Involved in WEF global Shaper community(mentoring & sustainability);Also an Ahimsa Fellow (animal welfare policy studying & implementation understand People For Animals); Been Educator on Unacademy for AFCAT with 1Lakh+ views, 600+ lessons, 50+live students and training & mentoring of 50+ other educators.

So I am a little uncomfortable with my GMAT score. This was my third attempt. But Mcdonough average GMAT is 625 FE. What are my chances ? Should I apply with 615 ?

615 does not give strength to your candidacy. Ideally, since you are an ORM/Indian, you should be higher than the historical average. Hire a coach for 1-2-1 classes as time for R2 is fast running out.
