Hi @himanshu1109,

Thanks for sharing your profile. You have a strong and unique profile, but it’s a bit unclear right now.

In simple terms:

Your story is interesting (AI job + family business)

But your goal (wealth management) doesn’t clearly connect

And you’re not showing clear results or impact

What to fix:

Pick one clear goal and connect it to your past

Show numbers (what you achieved, not just what you did)

Explain why you need an MBA in a simple, logical way

Aim for a GMAT FE close to 675 to have a strong chance at all these schools

Feel free to reach out if you need any further input.
All the best!

Kya doing? Dhyan se!
Do no self-harm by falling in love with your profile and getting blind-sighted towards your customers in b-schools (no; adcom is not your customer).
If wealth management and personal finance are your clear choice, then is an MBA the right choice? I don't think so, but I leave it to your due diligence.

Himanshu, I would say: please stay away from overly complicating your story by using abstract terms or relying on AI to create your MBA pitch. First, understand what B-schools look for most importantly, a strong career growth progression story that will capture the recruiters’ interest followed by other stats. What’s your story? What do you do in Pharma? How have you helped industry leaders make logical decisions, give instances? How have you been given incremental responsibilities and better opportunities that make you more competitive compared to your peers? How have your wins motivated you to shape your goals?

Simplify your story and make your goals both aspirational and motivational. Only then can you expect the adcoms to root for your success, thinking, “Yes! This is the person who should succeed through obtaining an MBA.” Feel free to reach out should you want a candid discussion regarding your strategy.

Hi Himanshu
Priyanka here from ARINGO. Speaking about your profile, the combination of AI/enterprise tech + hands-on family business experience gives you a strong narrative, especially for your target schools. Your GPA is a big plus. Your key focus now should be getting a strong GMAT score and clearly connecting your experience to your post-MBA goals in tech/finance.

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.

Apologies for the critical analysis, but, I strongly suggest simpler language in describing yourself. Admissions committees are run by real people who read thousands of applications- anything they are not able to understand within the first read (or maximum two) is likely to get rejected. I felt lost reading your profile description. I understand you have a two parallel careers- but AI, pharmaceutical, hardware business, SME, P&L, retail, personal finance, wealth management - I couldn't figure out how to separate the two careers in context of these words. Simplify your message and use LLMs moderately.

Also, discover your strongest professional skills and build a career goal around that. I am not sure wealth management will fit this framework.
