I gained two years of full-time work experience right at the end of my undergraduate studies, which I spent contributing to our family's advertising company. One of my notable achievements during this time was successfully planning, procuring, and installing LED screens throughout the capital city in my state. This project marked a pioneering effort as it was the first instance of such technology being used for advertising in India.


Additionally, I concurrently worked with our sister company, an electrical contracting firm. Among my significant responsibilities was managing a major government project in Andhra Pradesh, where I oversaw the installation and erection of 260,000 street lights across five economic clusters. This involved close collaboration with government agencies, fellow contractors, and the supervision of a team of 70 employees and workers.

While pursuing my postgraduate studies, I continued to work on and manage various projects, gradually assuming more significant responsibilities within our family businesses.

Hi. I would also recommend looking into Columbia and Kellogg - both have a Family business track, which makes it much easier for someone with Family Business background and having family writing LOR's

P.S. Crazy GMAT score by the way! Really really good!
PPS. For the sake of MBA, you would have 3 years of Work Experience since most would be considering it at the time of matriculation or around July 1 timeframe.

Also, you don't need to translate your GPA into the 4.0 scale, so you can leave it in the original state/CGPA number.
