Currently working as a Sr Software Engineer, I am involved in too technical oriented work. I don’t see myself continuing this in the long run, so I am looking to pivot to a lesser/non-technical role.


My primary post-MBA goal is to transition into Tech/Strategy Consulting. Among other options that I am considering is Product/ Project Management.
Personally, the major motivation behind going for MBA other than the career transition is to get international exposure and experience.

With a low GPA, below median GMAT and coming from the Engineering background, Booth wont be a good fit for your profile or your career goals. ISB maybe on the fence but will need more details to determine if ISB will make sense for your profile. Would advice you to recalibrate your application strategy and put some work into your school research to determine better fits for your profile. Additionally, make a shortlist of 6-7 schools which will be good fits purely from a robust application strategy point of view to maximize your chances of success.

All the best!
