Profile evaluation for ISB, ISB, IIM, Energy background, from India

1 month ago

Hey @Varsh30,
Frankly speaking, without your GMAT scores (ISB takes the scores very seriously), and also no information on how top tier your college was, what percentile your GPA ranks you in. Also, much of the results would depend on how compelling your overall story came out to be, what your Extra Curriculars are, and whether you have been able to leverage them to show demonstrated examples of leadership, and such other traits that AdComs of super selective programs like to see in their candidates.

Do feel free to reach out to us for a more detailed, 1-to-1 profile assessment

Hope that helps. Please submit your profile for a Free Assessment over a 1:1 call. https://theivyleagueedge.com/index.php/contactus/

Hi @varsh30,
Could you share a bit more about your profile (undergrad college, GPA, extracurriculars, etc.)? Your post-MBA goals seem reasonable but could use some refinement.

Also, aim for a GMAT FE score above 675 to stay competitive for ISB. You should be eligible for IIMA PGPX, assuming you have over 4 years of experience by March 31st. For most other one-year programs at the IIMs, you’ll typically need 5+ years of work experience.

All the Best!

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

If you wish to deepen your knowledge of sustainability frameworks, then why not a master's in sustainability instead of an MBA? An MBA is a general management program that will, at best, offer you 1-3 electives associated with sustainability. If an outsider like me is questioning your career vision or motivations for an MBA, chances are that the Adcoms may do it too.

Hi Varsh30, Have you considered applying abroad? Some European b-schools such as INSEAD, RSM Rotterdam, Copenhagen Business school, IESE have a much larger focus on sustainability and post-MBA, you may get exciting roles in Europe. I am not sure, you would achieve similar outcomes at ISB or IIMs
Also, I'd recommend that if you are applying for an MBA, then you do not make your applications only about sustainability (as you have done in your short write-up here). To advance in your career in managerial positions (and as a decision maker) you will benefit from business skills, such as understanding strategic, financial and operational considerations/limitations in your sustainability initiatives, besides needing the leadership (negotiation and influencing) skills. So an MBA makes sense for you, but you will have to build a case for it.
Feel free to reach out. I have worked with an applicant who has done both Masters in sustainability and an MBA, so I can share some tops with you on how to approach this.

Hi Varsh30, Is sustainability something that you are genuinely interested in, or is it something you feel would look best on applications? What you have done within the scope of a manufacturing business has largely involved optimizing manufacturing operations (I come from a similar background pre-MBA). In an operations role, you would have had experience working with and influencing stakeholders at various levels in the organization.

Trust me, your experience in operations leadership will attract significant attention from leading MNCs, consulting firms, as well as startups looking to scale operations. If you pitch niche sustainability goals, especially with Indian B-schools, you may be limiting your scope to very few established pipelines.

Feel free to reach out if you want a candid discussion regarding future possibilities for your kind of experience.
