Hi @deesvs , I hope you are doing well!

Your profile demonstrates good academic credentials, including a Carnegie Mellon CS degree with a minor in entrepreneurship and 2 fully funded MSc degrees, reflecting your intellectual rigor and global exposure. With over 3 years of experience in an early-stage startup, where your projects earned national recognition, you showcase initiative and impactful contributions and it is a great plus. Your international study and work experience, combined with significant extracurricular involvement, including founding clubs, mentoring, and volunteering, highlight leadership and a global perspective. However, without a GRE/GMAT score, it’s difficult to assess academic competitiveness. Additionally, with 3 years of work experience, emphasizing leadership and quantifiable achievements will be crucial. Starting late in the application cycle may reduce your chances, but crafting a strong narrative with a clear vision for your post-MBA tech goals and a competitive test score can position you well for top programs. Overall, your profile seems to have good chances with a strong GMAT score. All the very best for your exam!
