Hi Aren
Priyanka here from ARINGO. Speaking about your profile, you have a solid profile for HEC Paris, especially because your story is focused and technically strong.

Your academics are excellent, and your work in computer vision and AI applications gives you relevant experience for the MSc in Data Science & AI for Business. The military background also adds leadership and maturity to your profile, which can help you stand out. Your strong technical experience will also balance your GMAT score

A few questions you should answer clearly in your application:

1. Why move from data preprocessing into broader AI/business roles?
2. Why HEC specifically?
3. What are your long-term goals after the degree?

Your certifications and self-learning efforts are a strong positive because they show initiative outside university. You have a competitive profile, but execution will matter a lot, especially essays, career clarity, and explaining the impact of your work clearly.

I’d be happy to offer you a free profile review for your target programs to see where you stand and how to boost your chances, happy to help!
No pressure, no strings - just helpful insights on where you stand and how you can strengthen your chances.
