I did my undergrad from IIT Delhi, work ex of 9 years includes 1.5 years as a founder in start-up, more than 7 years in a central bank of the country. Completed FRM certification. I have published research papers in Journals with awards and have field experience of working in a developing state in India. After my MBA I'm looking to work in consulting and then move to entrepreneurship in the long term.

Hi. You have a unique and amazing profile. I feel well-seasoned and good match for Booth. Your GRE is likely a bit on the lower side but we have seen schools be quite forgiving of that in light of work experience, and value brought to the program. Note that very unlikely to get any scholarships with that GRE.

P.S. If you are looking for consulting, HBS is not the only program per se. They do put 150 very capable people into MBB. Lots of other folks are strong in consulting including Tuck, Yale, Fuqua, and Darden. A bit more here: https://gmatclub.com/forum/best-mba-pro ... 21312.html and the good thing about consulting is that you have pretty equal chances despite the program and exactly the same pay regardless of the program. So whether you go to HBS or Fuqua, it is the same. Of course the experience, prestige, and alum networks will be somewhat different.

Good luck with applications!
