Thanks for sharing your profile, @Prakriti2600. As a female applicant from a non-traditional MBA background, you bring diversity to the classroom. However, a strong GMAT/GRE will be important because admissions committees may want additional evidence of quantitative readiness.

What stands out is: global projects, UK exposure, Canada exposure, Middle East exposure, cross-functional coordination, and BIM & digital delivery experience. Many applicants say they have international exposure. You actually do. Adcoms like candidates who have worked across cultures and stakeholders.

What might be missing? Team leadership, client ownership, revenue impact, cost savings, process improvement initiatives, or mentoring responsibilities. Those examples will determine whether you become a competitive MBA applicant or simply another technical professional.

Questions:
Why MBA Now? Why not continue progressing within architecture and move into project management organically? What business problem excites you? Urban mobility? Smart cities Sustainable infrastructure? Affordable housing? The answer to these questions could become the centerpiece of your essays.

You mentioned entrepreneurship. What specifically interests you? Design-tech? PropTech? Urban solutions? Sustainability?

The key question is: can we transform your profile from "architect on global projects" into "future infrastructure and strategy leader"?

We would love to learn more about your academic background, extracurricular activities, work experience, and personal journey so that we can provide a tailored profile evaluation and an honest school assessment. Feel free to book an evaluation session.

Cheers!
