I think you have some great extracurriculars and it would be great for you to possibly pair those down and achieve greater focus there. So I want you to switch your orientation from *activity* to *impact* (solving important problems,in sum) and that’s what they’ll be looking for. I sat this because I think that the leadership aspect needs to be heightened a great deal.
Will you be continuing with entrepreneurship? If that’s the case apply January term next year.
Just I feel like your work experience is not signaling any clear identity right now. You might honestly want to wait another year beyond next year. And take that time to really make an organizational impact at work and outside of work.
Unfortunately with regards to your GMAT don’t think 720 is going to get the job done unfortunately I think 740+ would be better for CBS. And of course just exhaust your ability to get a better score that’s the name of the game.
If you do apply next year I would caution you about applying LBS, you really need either a stellar impact working at a high-level or five years of work experience plus. And they also care about the international factor.

Hi, Anirudh16,
Thank you for your post!
First of all, I would like to congratulate you on backing a 770 in your GMAT; that's quite an exception, even for someone with a maths background. You did great! Also, you have a good overall GPA, and it seems you would have strong academic stats; however, I would like you to add more to your statistics since you are from an overrepresented pool of candidates so that we can gauge your actual chances at top B-schools.
Coming to your profile, your work experience is low, and you need professional accolades, international exposure, and good & dynamic ECAs to make it to the top B-schools. Moreover, it would help if you mention whether you are targetting Indian, American, European, Canadian B-school, or any other top B-school.
I think your profile is brief at some points (even other than professional information), so it's difficult to gauge schools for you accurately. I would like to know about your ECas, accolades, and international exposure to suggest schools for you. However, you are still quite young and must be extremely clear on how an MBA can help you reach your goals and mention your motivation/driving force, your aspirations, and finally, why you think it's a good choice for you to go for an MBA now and you have relevant skills to be successful! If you'd like, we are happy to hop on a call with you sometime this week to discuss your profile in length and further help you with shortlisting MBA programs; feel free to book a free session with us at your convenience.
Interact with the current B school students and industry experts who’ll help you prepare a roadmap for your R1 applications for top B schools
Cheers!

Hi, Amritaroy1995,
Thank you for your post!
First of all, I would like to say you do have a stellar academic profile along with some great ECAs and community service examples that would provide an additional boost to your profile. If you can back 730+ in your GMAT, it would definitely increase your chances at top B-schools like Wharton and Stanford.
Coming to your work experience, you did well describing your role; however, in order to bank upon them, you need to elaborate more about crucial projects assigned, examples of leadership, skill-set developed, all about professional accolades, As international exposure/experience is greatly valued at this stage by schools like LBS and Columbia, it would be important for you to cover it with your sustainable jewelry startup which seems interesting, speaking more about it will add diversity to your profile and start an interesting conversation between you and AdComs. Your ECAs are diverse and quite strong ECAs, which could be very well used in your essays to add additional points to your profile. I would also like you to elaborate more on the new challenges faced, the leadership role you played, the impact created by you, and a bit more about the overall experience.
Overall you have a good profile, but since you switched roles in the past and want to pursue marketing, coming from a technical background, you need to give strong reasons why you think it was a good time for you to switch and why you want to switch again? In addition, what were your aims & aspirations regarding your new role/future role, and how would you say it isn't something closely related to your endurance. Finally, you need to link your past experiences and skill-set in your diverse tenure with your post-MBA goals. For your reference, I suggest you go through our article on How you can justify your career switch to pursue an MBA for a career change!, this would most certainly help provide insights and help you structure your profile accordingly. Right now, I need more information as I feel your profile is still brief at certain points in work experience. Also, I would say you must plan this year to diversify your knowledge and skill-set regarding marketing to back your post-MBA goals. If you are open to suggestion Fuqua, Ross, Haas and Kellogg are some schools good for marketing as post-mba goal. If you'd like, we are happy to hop on a call with you sometime this week to discuss your profile in length and further help you with shortlisting MBA programs; feel free to book a free session with us at your convenience.
