Hi. it looks like you have applied already and I’m happy to share some thoughts but not sure how much you can leverage of it.
If you are indeed over represented, your test score is right on par with the schools average but likely 30 points below your peer average.
Going from software to consulting will be scrutinized as it is a meaningful shift. The admissions team will be evaluating your interview and your communication skills which tend to be critical for consultants. Will you be able to impress a consulting firm during an interview?
Areas that can strengthen your application on the other hand, would be having a strong brand name. Recruiters go through stacks of resumes and having a strong brand we at least get you selected for a second review or an interview.
Since you have submitted your application, I would strongly recommend perfecting and polishing your presentation and interview skills. Make sure you come off confident on video and you speak very clearly and engaging.
😂👍 that’s a great result to get admitted from HEC so that could inspire you to greater heights. US is very competitive but also very big with many schools. Most top 20 are solid.
Thank you for responding . I'm unable to send any dms. Would really like to connect once and get your suggestion on whom I can work with for consultation and who I can avoid.
