Hello people!
I am an engineer from BITS Pilani who worked in pharma industry for 5 years (4 years in ZS Associates and 1 year in Eli Lilly). I'll have a total of 6 years of work-ex by the time I join any university (provided I get in). My record is good and I can produce good letter of recommendations from both of the companies for which I have worked.
Apart from work, I also led my photography club at my college, managing 40+ students across years and brought in multiple funding rounds as well. I also volunteered for Teach for India for 6+months and I can get a good LOR from one of the TFI's past fellow as well.
I have attempted GMAT Focus Edition and have scored a 675. Can you please review my profile and provide any feedbacks? I'm mostly looking to apply in Top 15 B Schools in Aug 2025 intake. Nothing particularly as M7, but colleges like Cornell, Scheller, Darden, Yale and INSEAD & NUS outside US.
Thank you for sharing your profile and MBA aspirations. I'm Priyanka, a Client Manager at ARINGO.
Your profile lays a strong foundation for admission to a top MBA program. With a robust GPA and a respectable GMAT FE score, coupled with clear career goals, you possess the key elements sought after by admissions committees. However, it's essential to articulate how an MBA will augment your skill set and propel your career to the next level in your applications.
Your leadership experience in leading a photography club during college underscores your early leadership abilities and passion for your hobbies. Additionally, your involvement in volunteering work adds depth to your profile.
Your target schools, including Cornell, Scheller, Darden, Yale, INSEAD, and NUS, are both ambitious and attainable considering your profile and aspirations.
However, there are some missing details, such as the impact of your work, promotions, international exposure, etc. If you could share your CV and additional information with me at [email protected], I would be delighted to connect you with our CEO for a more comprehensive review. Together, we can collaborate on crafting compelling applications.
Best of luck on your MBA journey!
