Hey guys,
Thanks in advance, for taking time to help me out. Much appreciated!
So, last year I had applied to
Coming to me,
I'm a 25 year old Male from India with an Engineering background.
I have an internship at a top tech company (50k+ employees), which I joined full time, and have 3 years of work ex right now. So assuming I join a school on 2020, I shall have 4 years of work ex.
I joined as a software developer, have one grade promotion in that, then shifted to project management, and I manage the development of internal infrastructure on which about $50B worth of business runs. I have also led cross functional organisations with 2000+ employees within my company.
GMAT - 710 (last year September)
TOEFL - 115 (last year September)
Undergrad University - 87.6% in BTech in Computer Science Engineering. I had merit scholarship for all four years at my undergrad university.
Social Service - A lot. Global as well as within India. I am currently teaching English to Syrian refugees. I have in the past taught English and Math to children from abusive families living in shelter homes. I have led GSR programs within my company.
If you need any more information, let me know.
Thanks
(If this is not the forum to post such stuff, could you please guide me to where I can do so. Thanks.)

Your GMAT is fairly low for your peer group. I have seen people with 730 rejected from that group of schools in previous years and I would suggest 750 as the solid score to go by if you are targeting the Top 15.
My suggestion would be to either retake the GMAT or to look at the lower ranked schools or European programs. Look for schools with average scores that are around 680.

Thanks for the reply.
So is the GMAT score the sole basis for consideration to an MBA program? I mean I have developed a lot of experience and expertise around management too. Those things don't count? I mean I know my score isn't great, but will I be rejected based on my score itself, and my application won't be seen further?
